  • We allowed 2 hours to visit the museum, expecting our almost 4 year old to last about 90 minutes. He was so enthralled, we never left the first floor when we heard the announcement it would close in....  more

  • I had so much fun photographing a wedding here - if you're looking for a unique venue to host your wedding, Children's Museum is it! They were very accommodating and had plenty of space to host a small to mid size wedding. The landscape and architecture outside near the Museum Lab is beautiful is you want more of a traditional look to your wedding photos, but they also have plenty of fun installations inside the museum if you're up for whimsy!
  • We live out of town and decided to stop here to let our kids play. We were not disappointed! Our kids (ages 4 & 8) loved it. Very interactive and affordable. There is a parking lot that costs $7 and is located next to the museum. Also, they have a cafe that sells drinks and food. I do recommend bringing an extra pair of closes or a swimsuit. There is a water area that is more like a very small indoor waterpark.
