Caregivers use the Museum as a resource that provides information on early childhood brain development, learning styles, and effective parenting skills. The Museum maintains a strong commitment to providing access to all children and families in the community, including low-income and special needs families.

I've been taking my children here since 2004, and they love it. My teenage son has fond memories of time spent playing with the various sets, but my daughter is young enough to still go. She begs me all the time to take her, and it's hard to get her to leave when it's time to go. The admission price is pretty good and the different sets are educational, interactive, and so cool. It's always changing, too. Every time we go, it's so different, but always the kids have really enjoyed themselves. It's so clean inside, which must be hard with all those small toys. Parking is easy, and you can get your ticket validated which gives you $2 off. The walk from the car to the building was all indoors, which I appreciated since it was well below zero outside. Overall, it was a great experience!

Kids had a great time! There were many different opportunities for the children to explore. There were also some new exhibits that were cool. The kids loved the baseball one where they ran their fastest and had their speed clocked. Unfortunately there were also many areas in need of repair. Hopefully next time everything will be working as it should.

Amazing place! My son absolutely loved it, there is so much to do! Parents, be prepared to be as exhausted as your child(ren) lol. Like many other children my son did not want to leave. I particularly enjoyed the workforce area, and the small grocery store, it really gave my son a sense of independence. It was our first time, I found that the place was a bit hard to find, I used GPS, drove around to the back to find. Parking structure $8 with $2 discount once validated (non- member). Went on a Saturday, park on street if possible. We did not purchase products on inside. Good times.

We visited in September. This place is great for the 10 and under crowd. My son especially loved the real Harley Davidson motorcycle they have to ride. Tickets are extremely reasonable as well. If we visit Milwaukee again, we will definitely go back!

Not sure why this place is so well liked. Took my 3 and 5 year old about an hour to be bored. Displays are worn down. No way is it worth almost $40 for a family of four. Never going back.
