The museum is great for children! My son had so much fun, he could of stayed all day! However the cafe is terrible! Bring your own food to eat lunch. It wasn't expensive, but the quality was terrible.

What a wonderful museum! We could have spent days playing in the art room on the second floor. The rooftop garden and greenhouse was a blast - I wish we had allotted more time to spend up there. The staff was so amazing, polite and eager to please. They took animals out for my kids to touch and taught us all a little bit about them.

Super fun place! Great climbing thing, a lot of fun art and tactile stuff. Recently took our 4 year old and 1 year old, and it's hard to say which one had a better time! Don't forget the garden on the roof!
