First time here with the kiddos and their little cousins! They had a blast! And I'm just at awe every corner I look and go to! Down to the restroom with the tiny tiny toilets for the littles! Lol! Love the fact there's kid friendly washing stations through the museum making it easy for the kids. The indoor treehouse has cameras on the outside so parents can keep an eye on the littles while they are in the treehouse which is awesome! The entire time we were there I saw workers tidy up and sanitize and clean the whole time so that is reassuring! Like the indoor didn't impress me enough.. when we went outside.. I was mind blown at how much is outside and how even cuter it is! They had balance bikes with helmet and a track for kiddos, fishing, building, learning to milk a cow, dinosaurs, farmers market, and so much more! Also, kid friend height table and benches perfect for snacking and breaks. Is to note there isn't any food or drinks available for purchase at the museum but we were able to bring our snacks. Price point was so affordable especially for the experience and what they offer for the kids. We will definitely recommend this place and would highly likely return! read more

Heard this is a great place for young kiddos, and boy that rumor was true! Our kids loved it! Our kids were entertained the whole time. Loved all the hands on activities. Everything from a fish aquarium, to a fire truck, slides , kitchen, and more. Could have spent the day here , if they were open longer. They have an outdoor area, however was closed due to the rain. Will be back to check it out though. Only open to the public four days a week, other days closed for field trips. Can be pricey $15 for kids one and up and $10 per adult; $7.50 for seniors. Can add up quickly for large families. read more

4/5 stars because: 1. The curtain was off in the dramatic play area and there were few costumes. 2. There were only three colors of colored pencils at the drawing/coloring tables. 3. Students only allowed to paint on one panel. Here on a Friday for a school field trip with my grandson. He has been here many times as we purchased memberships for our grandchildren last year. His teacher did not know about the museum until I shared it with her. First grade is a wonderful time to experience the museum so she planned a trip. A majority of the school families attending had not visited the museum and enjoyed their visit. read more

We just recently discovered this place! Not too far from Fresno. My kids really found this children's play center so fun and enriching. Super tidy and clean inside. They have staff present throughout the establishment indoors and outdoors. You will find different play areas in each corner, each with themed differently. The kids can climb, read a book, pretend play, draw, paint, and there is an outdoor play area as well. It's a pretty big play center and offers free lockers for parents and guest to put their belongings away without carrying it around. They do not serve food here but there are many restaurants nearby. Once you paid for admission, you can come and go as you please. They also offer a membership package as well that's worth the price if you want to come more often. Restrooms are clean and kids friendly with stools to stand on for shorter kids. Staffs were super friendly. Coming back for sure. read more

Imagine U is definitely a place to come to if you're young or young at heart!! You will learn something as there are so many "hands on"exhibits to check out! What's nice is there are a lot of agriculture themed areas so those that are not familiar with the agriculture community it's a good learning museum not seen in other cities! There are indoor and outdoor activities. There are plenty of employees assisting and re-setting the projects to be ready for the next child that comes by. The coolest one I thought was the Citrus theme area. You get to pick the oranges and run them through a sorter by hand cranking all the packing lines to pack the oranges and return them back up in an air tube! Thanks to all the sponsors and businesses that helped put this together! I wish there was something like this when I was growing up! read more

Amazing place for children of many ages. Educational as well as fun. Great program dude with the zoo for the summer.

One of the best children's museums we ever been to and we go to so many!!!! everything is literally top-notch and the quality of each toys are amazing! I seriously felt like I was at Disneyland at one point the outdoors activities that is! I extremely love the nursery that they have and it is so clean and I absolutely loved it !!! parking was really easy to find there was a lot of parking available and you can also park on the side street as well. It is free. Museum Hours: Friday 9am-1pm | Saturday & Sunday 9am-5pm | Monday 9am-1pm *Closed to the public Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to allow for school field trips they have absolutely everything and I really like the painting station that they had and it was super cool because you get to put the apron on and you go into the cool glass area to paint that was so awesome! I love the outdoors and that you can fish in the little pond that they have. I thought that was super cool. Our kids really loved it. They even have like a little tricycle area that you can bike in!! Overall, this is A+ and I seriously would come here again if I didn't live five hours away lol 1000% recommend !!! read more

We came here for a field trip and we had the best time! We were able to do all the different sections, and also hanged out outside and there is so much space, you don't feel like you are on top of each other and each section has a variety of games and activities and items for them to explore and play with and learn about. I love places like this, takes their brains out of the norm and they learn and interact with real life scenarios and is filled with creativity and fun! read more

We drove here from Fresno because I heard good things about imagine you children's museum. It was worth a drive and our two grandkids were so amused so we're the Grandparents! so many different little adventures for all of us to experience . read more

There are a lot of activities for the kids all organized in themed sections of the museum. It felt to be more focused on kids under 5/6. I took my 8 year old and 3 year old. The 8 year old had fun but he was almost too big for a lot of the activities. The 3 year old had a blast. Everything was clean and in good condition read more

Great place to take little ones to play! Lots of different indoor interactive areas and outdoor areas as well I think best for kids 2 thru 6 years old, but bigger kids can still enjoy it too read more

Met up with a friend here to have a play date. Our children range in age from 10-5yrs old. They all had a blast! We were here on a Friday, practically the whole day from opening to closing time. Our children were able to cover the whole museum in that time, although they could have played longer had we not had leave lol. Also, you can pack a lunch and eat in the picnic area. That's what we did so we could make the most of our time there. read more

We really enjoyed this place! I wish there was something like it in Fresno. My oldest two (10 & 13)even had fun but was done after two hours, but my 3 year old could have lived there! I think if it wasn't such a busy day that we would have lasted longer. -Hours: they are only open Monday & Friday 9am-1pm and Saturday & Sunday 9am-5pm -Price: adults were $10 each and kids over the age of 1 years old is $15 They do have a senior price (63+) $7.50 and if you have an EBT card it's $7.50 for up to 4 people. -Parking spaces are across the street and a few on the street around the building Overall we had a great experience read more

This is such a fun place this kids! Hubby had to travel to Tulare for work and we decided to make it a family trip. Instead of sitting in the hotel with my son all day, I googled indoor playgrounds(because this heat is intolerable for a girl from the beach cities) and the Imagine U Children's Museum popped up. There are multiple areas to visit discover, learn and play! One major thing I noticed is the staff is constantly walking around and sanitizing each station. I love that! There is an outdoor area with a few different setups for the kids to further explore. I'd recommend this museum to anyone visiting the area with children. read more

Awesome place for kids! My 3 and 5 year old loved it here so much that they didn't want to leave. Very fun and entertaining rooms, as well as a big and spacious outside to play too. read more

Fun place for toddlers. Get there early as it often gets crowded. Excellent place and clean too! The outside is just as unique as the inside. Love the artists section when a child paints a window. So cool. Love this place and our toddlers did too! read more

My 3 and a half year old loved her visit here! Lots to do both inside and outside. Everything was in good working order and clean as well. It costs more than the average indoor playground but that is because this place IS more than the average indoor playground. read more

This museum is fantastic! Definitely can spend hours here! We came on a 105 day so we could only enjoy the vast outdoor area for a small amount of time, but indoors is very chilled. Our four year old would have stayed hours longer than we already did. They don't have food here but they said we could get a stamp and return if we went to eat off site. Staff was constantly cleaning and there were even bins to place chewed on/coughed on/ icky toys aside for staff to sanitize- nice touch! We will be back for sure and look forward to enjoying the outdoors this fall. read more

As a location to bring your children I would give it 4 Stars however our experience was holding our 2 year old's 2nd birthday. We paid for the largest room, $450 and very much believe the venue does not give an adequate amount of time to enjoy your child's special day. You only get 30 minutes to set up which is no way long enough and we had 8 people helping. 90 minutes too is not enough to get everyone fed, present opening and cake. We literally had to serve cake immediately after pizza and then open gifts as the guests ate dessert. This time includes getting fully out of the room! For that amount of money they really should adjust the amount of time families can enjoy their events. read more

I finally decided to stop in at this great addition to Visalia. It is a interactive museum that allows kids of many ages to experience and enjoy hands On daily 'jobs' and 'experiences'. From pretend play, showing how agriculture works, fixing cars, building, painting and fishing all while sharing HOW and WHY. Our youngest is 2 and she had a total blast! Our oldest are 10 and they weren't bored for a second. 4 stars because I felt some of the staff could have helped reorganize things during slower area periods, and didn't. And also for cost. I think for younger ages the cost shouldn't be the same as older children and/or adults. With that being said, we will definitely be back. read more

Amazing!!! This is a must for anyone traveling from out of town and if you're in town, I can't imagine not having a membership! All of our kids loved this place (1, 4, 11) and that's a big win in our book! You won't be disappointed! read more

Great place for kids walking-10 years old. The activities and exhibits are excellent and the staff are re-organizing them continually which I really like. I just wish they were open more often. Due to the limited hours it can get very very busy and there are too many children wanting to play in the same area or with the same exhibits leading to competition and parents don't ask their kids to wait their turn, they just let them push their way in and steam roll those around them. I think if they were open more the crowd wouldn't be so bad. I certainly recommend getting there when they open to avoid the crowd as much as possible. read more

We are so impressed with this place! I had no idea I lived so close to such a great play place for our girls. They just reopened a couple weeks ago. They weren't requiring masks, which is something to note if that bothers you. We wore the masks anyway, and our girls had a great time! We will be back soon! read more

This place is incredible! Every time we go, there seems to be something new or updated. The whole place, even outside, is meticulously clean. Staff is very friendly!

This place is absolutely amazing. A neighbor told me about it. We brought our 2.5 year old grandson from Fresno. Stopped at Kadys in Kingsburg for Swedish pancakes then headed to the museum. We both have been to some great childrens museums, but this blew the socks off all of them. Simply a must see for anyone with children driving through the area. I wish they were open all week but hoping that they have schools coming during the week. We only spent time in probably a quarter of it because he enjoyed each section so much . It's great because as he gets older there will be new things that will Capture his interest. WELL DONE!! read more

Took my 3 year old son last Sunday. It was open from 12-4pm. He had so much fun we stayed from 12:30 to 4pm. I didn't have the heart to make him leave although I tried a couple of times. He loved the auto station and the treehouse the most. If you haven't tried this place do. They even offer night events and you can drop off your child then pick them up, WHAT!! That's way cool. read more

I've been hearing about this place for years, and so happy I finally got the chance to visit. This place is so adorable inside, and there is a lot to do for kids. I definitely recommend this place for kids under 8. There are about 10 or 11 stations for the kids to play at, and a few stations consist of paint, and crafts. My son really enjoyed the 5 and under station since he's 1 1/2, because the other stations were constantly full. We did go to the other stations and he did enjoy the activities but he was distracted by the other kids. I can't wait to bring him back to have more time with him in each station. read more

Imagine U Children's Museum - New!! - Children's Museums Near Me - Visalia, California

While planning a trip from Sacramento to Disneyland with our 2 year old I knew we'd have to stop somewhere along the way to get some energy out. But where?? If you look anywhere online all you'll find is...a rest area. No thanks! I dug and dug and found Imagine U! We took the 99 instead of the 5 just to stop here. Imagine U made for an awesome halfway stop for our family. My 2 year old had SO MUCH FUN!!! His favorites were the painting area (with aprons), the sand play area and percussion instruments out back, the apple picking station, and the dedicated play area for younger kids. This wasn't even half of the awesome stuff this place has to offer, just his favorites. This place looks incredibly well funded and designed, so well thought out and incredibly well executed. I was so impressed! He ran and ran and burned off so much energy in just an hour and a half - it was an incredibly worthwhile stop. We will be back every time we make this drive! Check Groupon for a discount. We paid $19 for 3 admissions instead of $28. read more
