Tallinn with children: Our experiences in Estonia's capital
Activities: We visited the NUKU Puppet Museum. We saw a show with mechanical devices, with flying mobiles in the steampunk style. Inside there were touchscreens and a large number of marionettes. There was a horror grotto where puppets moved to light and sound effects of a ghost train
Highlights: The children liked the room where you could move the marionettes behind glass using the touchscreen. The "Gruselgruft" (horror grotto) was a real highlight, but it might not be there anymore. It was "the most modern museum in Estonia" ✨
