    This was a great place to take my two year-old. He had a blast. I did too somewhere where you can bond together. Stay there for several hours and he was very tired when we left, which was great for me. I definitely recommend this place.

    My youngest who's 7 loved it here. They have something for all ages. It's clean and all the employees are so nice. It's something inexpensive to do with the kids if you're on a budget as w

    This was a great spot to stop on our trip. My boys, age 7 and 5, had a lot of fun. We spent about 1.5 hours playing and my kids would have stayed longer if we didn't have to get back on the road. They played in the awesome chicken coop. My five year old loved the slide and my seven year old preferred to get down via the fire pole (so cool). They had magnetic boards with words and dress up magnets. The coop also had chalk boards for creating whatever you'd like. There was a small climbing wall, a draw bridge, and stairs as well. They had a few hands on crafting/building tables and my five year old is really proud of his party hat that he made with his dad. The life size operation game was so cool, I got a kick out of it. The ball drop wall had great variety of items to create tunnels and slides for the ball to travel from the top to bottom, side to side, and down. They built an awesome fort out of blue foam blocks, made music with several different instruments, including a piano. My son loved that he could see the inside of the piano as he played. The music trees are very nicely placed and such a cute idea. Over all we really enjoyed the museum. There is room for the museum to grow and add more for the kids to do. If more outside support from businesses and customers join in, I'm sure this will continue to be a great place for the community.

    So impressed! There was so much to do for my three year old. They are taking so many measures for Covid and I felt really safe being there. Masks required, low capacity, appointment required, social distancing, etc. I highly recommend this place to all age groups! We loved the open atmosphere and various activities such as art, climbing, imaginary play, slides, etc.!

    Fun way to spend the day. They really put a lot of thought into the items the things they offer to explore.

    This was a really solid experience, especially for a 5-year-old. The space was wide open, clean,…read moreand easy to navigate, which made it stress-free and enjoyable for both kids and adults. There's plenty of room to explore without feeling crowded, and the overall atmosphere is calm and welcoming. That said, the museum does feel a bit dated in places. Several of the hands-on exhibits designed for kids -- especially the ones with buttons and interactive elements -- weren't working, which was a little disappointing since that's often what kids are most excited about. On the positive side, it's still better than the science museum in Houston, in our experience. The planetarium is one of the better ones around, and the absolute standout is the Omni Theater helicopter ride -- you simply cannot beat it. That alone is worth the visit and completely captivated our child. Overall, while some updates and maintenance would go a long way, this is still a strong family-friendly museum and a great outing for young kids.

If you're a member, depending on your membership, you're able to have 2 or more people go in with you for free. Which I feel is definitely worth it, especially if you have kiddos. I love that it's an interactive museum with many exhibits. You can take your kiddo/s here, and they can be entertained for hours. It's perfect for rainy days, or unfavorable weather days instead of just bring at home with your little one/s. This is a great spot to take them, and they will definitely let all their energy out. My little one enjoyed the Marvel section, especially since he got to wear a cape, the grocery store they have for the kiddos, as well as other interactive play areas within the museum. They have a café inside, and I'll have pictures of their menu. Oh, and you have to pay for parking, but if you're a member you're able to get a discount. My son had a good night's sleep after all the walking around. I highly recommend it to anyone who had little ones. They can run around or crawl for hours here.
