This place was probably great 10 years ago when they first installed many of the displays. But due to a woeful lack of maintenance and any updates, it seems, over half of the exhibits are either missing key components or entirely inoperative. See pics. That they charge admission is embarrassing. With some serious effort to replace a lot of the broken stuff, this could be great again; but in the meantime, it’s barely worth the price of admission other than to get out of the rain.
This is a cute little hidden gem. I took my 4 yr old grandson here, and he had such a good time. Driving the vehicles. Pretending to be a vet and a doctor. Building the perfect Lego race car to race on the track. Being a news reporter and an astronaut. It was great to have so many hands-on activities for him. The only drawback is the location. It's in a sketchy area, but with that said... we had no problems. I will definitely be going back. After 3 hours of following my grandson around, I wanted to leave, and he cried all the way to the car.
This is a nice safe space to bring kids ages 4 through 11. The exhibits are very unique and will cater to different interests. The museum works with arts organizations like Art Expressions and host free art workshops regularly. The kids will spend ay least 45 min exploring the entire museum with hands on and fun interactive opportunities. I like watching the boys race their Lego car, sit in the fire truck police car and ambulance, and play in the grocery store.
The children's museum didnt seem as fun at first, but it is definitely something to do when it's 100° outside!! My 18month old didn't like it the first time we went because it's definitely designed for older kids. But the second time we went, she showed more interest!! It's a pretty clean place and great for your kids to use their imaginations. My daughter especially liked the activity where you put scarfs above a fan and it goes flying 😊
It's so fun to go to a museum with my grandchild and daughter. This one was really fascinating with all the great things a police car, a police motorcycle, a public bus cut in 1/3, an ambulance, a John Deere tractor, a Caterpillar tractor, a broadcasting studio, a kids size grocery store with check out, and beautiful science experiences that were Hands-On! It has something for all ages! I was very impressed with the volunteer staff there they were nice, helpful and assertive just enough. If you have a child that is sensitive to noise wait till the visiting class leaves. We will definitely come back again as their things for older children as well. In the back of the museum there is a gated area with picnic tables and it's very peaceful. Parking was easy and there was no line to get in.
This place was so fun for our kids ages 4, 6 and 9. There are so many different things and places for them to explore and the themed rooms are super cool. There were a lot of things that seemed to need a little TLC/fixing, but the kids had fun regardless
Love going here, and my son ALWAYS has so much fun!
Kids had such a fun time! Ages 4 & 3. Lots of cute exhibits that allow kids to use their imagination. Will definitely be coming here again!
