Took my 9yr old to see the Horses at War exhibition - and it was fascinating! Had no idea that the horses of generals became such celebrities - to the extent that when they died they made ink pots out of their hooves (amongst other things). Michael Morpurgo's War Horse has done a lot to inspire this exhibition - but it doesn't dominate until the last room. Loved seeing how they came up with the concept of using rods to move the puppet horses (rather than strings) - would love to see this at the theatre now.
