  • Even when super busy on a Saturday morning, I LOVED sharing time with my 14 month old grandson at this museum. The line up for the carousal went super quick. My only complaint was the long slow line....  more

  • Great place to take the kids every so often, typically whenever the special exhibit changes. My daughter loves the grocery shopping area sponsored by Giant. So much fun and very interactive to keep the kids entertained. Also keep an eye on the special events going on for the day. Arts and crafts, story time and other things are nice to participate in amongst all the other areas. Would recommend getting there first thing so you don't have to wait to get in.
  • This place is awesome for little kids. My babies are 5 and 0 and there truly is a little something for everyone here. There are so many cool interactive exhibits and imaginary play spaces for the kiddos that you could easily spend a few hours there. You can either pack your own snacks or grab something from the cafe. There is cafeteria seating available for lunch and refillable water bottle stations throughout. They even have a cute little theatre where they do different shows. They did such a cool Kwanzaa presentation last month. A bonus is that they also have an indoor carousel. $5 for unlimited rides. Definitely money and time well spent.
