There is a myriad of options for children of all ages to play here. A couple of times we felt lost going from section to sections, there are activities for kids ages 3-16. Families may need longer...

Fun Fun Fun! I my granddaughters ages 3, 9, 12. There was something to do for all of them. We spent over four hours at the museum and still wasn't able to see the entire museum. I paid the extra fee for us to visit the butterfly exhibit. Although we didn't stay long because of the amount of people in such a small space, it was worth the extra money. The restaurant was busy, but the line went fast! If you're visiting Rochester, I recommend you put this on your 'must-see' list

What an amazing place for all ages! Fun nostalgia for adults and just plain fun for kids. A wide range of activities and learning are available for everyone and my niece keeps insisting we continue to go back! Just go and you’ll have a great day!
