    What a great spot! This children's museum is in an old department store type building right on Main Street in downtown Wheeling. It's packed with different hands-on and immersive experiences for all ages-- we especially loved the musical instruments and the sand table. It has enough fun stuff to keep the kids interested, but not big enough for them to be out of earshot or get lost. The perfect balance!

    Terra was wonderful! My grandson had a wonderful playing exploring and even did a craft. She also provided him with a free lunch. He made new friends and I would definitely go back for Tot Time.
