The attraction, in Burlington Street, held its first session of the new year on Sunday.

Parents watched as their children were encouraged to experiment with the slimey and sticky substance during the extreme glitter workshop.

During various sessions which were held on the day, children over the age of four were given the chance to create a range of designs using the slime.

A science workshop will be the next workshop hosted by the museum, on February 2, along with a valentine workshop on February 22.
