Young V&A, Children's museum in Bethnal Green, England

The Young V&A occupies a Victorian-era building with gardens set back from Cambridge Heath Road, featuring three main galleries spread across multiple floors.

Established in 1872, this Grade II listed building was among the first British institutions dedicated to preserving and displaying objects related to childhood education.

The Design Gallery, Play Gallery, and Imagine Gallery contain exhibits ranging from vintage toys to the original Superman costume worn by Christopher Reeve.

The museum offers free admission, wheelchair accessibility, storage lockers, multiple lifts, a cafe serving meals from 10:00 to 17:00, and dedicated spaces for children's activities.

The museum receives 400,000 visitors annually to explore its collections of childhood artifacts, including educational workshops and rotating exhibitions focused on youth creativity.
