Small but interesting. Nice activity for a kids New Years Eve party. Mainly for kids ages 5-8.

They try to play to the liking of children and my kids do love their play area upstairs, but the place is in major need of upgrading. Their museum is very dusty and outdated. I was so looking forward to bringing my kids annually (at least), but there was so little to do/see (other than the play area upstairs) that I'd rather take them to a free park then pay for this museum.

Children's area is somewhat in disrepair, but you can tell they're working on things. Rest of the museum is in pretty good shape though. The Santa they had for the holiday stroll was great!

It was good. It seemed to be a little dingy and dark. Not all the kids exhibits were working but my 3 year old had a good time anyway. They were working on new exhibits I think. Anyway, it was worth going once. $5 a person isn’t bad. But with smothers park on the next block for free, I don’t think it’s worth going again.

Fun for the kids to run around. Needs to be cleaned. Maybe a little more put into the experience they have to offer.
