This place was so fun! Even though we were there for at least two hours with one year olds, I would…read moresay we went through half of what they had. I am itching to go back already, it is well-worth the price ($18 for both my child and I). There is a lot of outdoor activities, so I would go on a nice day, but there's plenty to do inside as well if you need a rainy-day activity. So many fun activities for children, from a racing car track to a large outdoor xylophone, a "tree house" and fun little pretend areas, such as a hospital (the nursery, of course) pizza parlor, a market stand with fake food. Outside has a lot of fun things for Littles to climb on and explore. We will definitely be back!

Sooo many thing to see and do! Had to leave but will come back to do more activities.read more

Do not come on weekends or during spring break. It's extremely overcrowded, and there are no limits…read moreon how many people are allowed in. So much to see and my child loved it. But she's only two, and with older kids running around, she kept getting pushed. It made it stressful and put me in full mama bear mode. But if it isn't crowded, come and enjoy the museum.

This historic building has multiple levels full of exhibits from arts, crafts, a storybook auditorium, to a mini grocery store for learning and plenty of pretend play. This place is often very crowded and can be overwhelming for children and adults so remember to take breaks and if needed go to the sensory friendly room to regroup. For accessibility may be harder to navigate if using a mobility device or if need a sight cane. I would also not recommend using a service dog at this location due to the combination of crowds, noises, and difficulty of children understanding the dog is working (they will ask to pet).

We hosted our little's 2nd birthday party here and we could not be happier with how all worked out…read more I specifically chose this space as it is one big open area including play space and gathering/eating space - no private rooms = parents don't have to go in and out to supervise their young toddlers and that all the parents were able to hang out! Also, the space is just so dang cute and aesthetically pleasing! We and all of the attendees all came from the STL city area and all were surprised and impressed by the space. We chose a 9am Sunday time which was perfect for little and families, all eager to start the day early and play! As far as the party hosting goes, it was so seamless and Gabby was there early to help us set up/clean up everything. She was so helpful and efficient and also help guide us with timing of cake cutting and when it was time to start ushering people out. We brought in breakfast catering and gabby helped set up all the food/beverages that we brought in too. Completely seamless, infinitely helpful. All the kiddos had a blast and all the parents enjoyed our social gathering together. I highly recommend play street museum for private parties, without hesitation!

Adults are free and infant with kid admission. Our son loved the coloring table and also each of the play stores. You get a wooden token for each kid for snack or drink when you are on way out.

Parking is free if you're a member, if not you'll be charged unless you walk over , shuttle or park somewhere else nearby free.

The kid in me would come back repeatedly . Lol

We were worried he would be scared, but he was so happy lol. The rest of the museum was pretty cool, but it focuses more on older kids so the small ones didn't have much to interact with. The outdoor area about agriculture was nice (there are chickens!) and a giant tractor to play on. Another interesting part was past the bridge called the Vault. It was just collections over time, and all over the world. If you have time to spend all day, it would be cool, but we're going to wait a little bit until my toddler is older. Parking is $15, but not bad compared elsewhere.

There were supposed to be around to help families but every time you asked them for help they would say things like "well did you read the instructions." Additionally, I asked a staff member how the digital paint station worked and the response was "touch the screen" The staff was extremely dismissive and even though the WiFi network said guest, there was no public WiFi.

The collection of photographs is well organized and extensive enough that one can get a real feel for the way of life in Washington for the last century and a half.

Lots of good information is there if you are hunting ancestors and long lost friends and relatives. Go there and you'll find the staff and volunteers helpful, welcoming and friendly.

We got to see play and do so MANY things all active and the girls loved the play areas ...all of them. The bathrooms were clean and strategically placed...I was pleasantly surprised. The parking is close!...& I liked the exercise...our girls napped so hard after the visit. I am in firm belief that the overall planning and logistics of this place are professionally done & handled well! This venue is a must visit if in the area and you like hands on action. The girls had a blast and that is what matters most!! 10/10 times I will return.. for the price I paid... I could see myself doing this again with a longer stay in the area! Sidenote the people in guest service station were super awesome... All workers that interacted with our family had smiles on their faces and were so helpful. I feel for the price I paid...it was well worth it! We will return! *Questions reach out* Respectfully, Bryan and Family Oklahoma City

So much fun! The first visit was nearly 10 years ago. That time was fun too…read more On my most recent visit, it was just as much fun. I think I had forgot just how many different holes and paths you could take. They've also added more stuff than I remember. They had a section roped off because they're adding yet another section. I wasn't sure I'd enjoy the place as much this time around but I did. This is a must-visit when in StL but be warned, you will be tired after playing on this adult playground. The only annoyance this time is that I seem to remember that you could pay one price and get everything. This time, there was the general ticket that gives you access to 3 floors but no roof access. No pinball access. You have to pay extra for those two things. I guess extra charges make sense but just wrap the price all in one. I feel like the floors and roof should be in one ticket. There were a few times that employees came out on the roof to run people off that didn't have the appropriate color of bracelet. If you love having fun, definitely do this when visiting StL.

Bizarre nostalgic throw-back to sugar laced time before corn syrup drenched mixes arrived…read more I met a friend and his granddaughter in the basement to play retro-arcade games for a ser price fo a few hours. Kid and teenager me would have loved it... the sarcastic 10 year old wanted board games to improve her experience. After considering- I agreed. I would add some chess and checker boards and a few other board games. Or a few Atari games... The epitome was the McDonald's $1 double cheeseburger sign. I asked to order it: they didn't have cheeseburgers, all things are more expensive and everything is not as healthy. I am not wishing for cocaine Coca-Cola or other "medicine" in Dr Pepper. $1.50 for a can of soda is a big jump for a corn syrup from the nickel advertising of a sugar sweet memory. The epitome of the place was playing shuffleboard with the 10 year old. I was trying to play with a sense of touch. She was playing with the idea of creating a highlight reel of knocking my pieces off. I beat her because the idea of the game escaped her. To look back at Asteroids was a shock. Realized that it was just black and white, 2 dimensional game with only a few buttons to control it. Overall I walked still a fan of the glossed over experience. I remember being a broke kid wanting to play unrealistic games to escape from reality. Now I wish for the sugar rush I used to have.
