“A true experience!”

82990 Overseas Hwy, Islamorada, FL 33036, United States

“Pros - Saturday afternoon stilly plenty of parking - Friendly They have scavenger hunt for kids. - nice gift shop Lots of interesting books and souvenirs. Cons - Pricing for Adults: $15 is acceptable, but Children 6-11: $7 is a bit too much. - air circulation is bad. an old dusty smell full of the room. —————— We bought ticket at the entrance. As a diver we find it enjoyable to know the history of diving. The entire room is not spacious. It’s not too crowded, only one other family group, so we can enjoy all the exhibition slowly. We spend almost 2 hrs there. We all had a good time.”

702 W Kalamazoo St, Lansing, MI 48915, United States

“Such a great experience! I went as part of a field trip, but will go back to be able to spend more time looking at everything. This is something fun and different to do with your kids!”

160 W Main St, Lead, SD 57754, United States

“This was such an INTERESTING PLACE to visit? Site of the Homestake Gold Mine where 41,000,000 ounces was mined in the past. But it is useful in today's world of research. Do you know the word "neutrino"? If not, then stopping here is a …”

“You do have to wear a mask when you do come in and they provide free masks. Everyone wants to moan about how COVID is over and no one wants to talk about the flu. Masks can prevent transmission of common sicknesses most of the time. Before I came here, I did see one star reviews saying that they were anti-black. The moment I parked, I saw Black Lives Matter flags all over their windows. They have POC employees and have a wonderful section of black literature. So I’m pretty sure that the majority of the one star reviews are fake. I had asked an employee for recommendations and they picked out their favorites and their coworkers favorites as well. Very knowledgeable and friendly. If you don’t wanna talk to anyone, they do have written little postcard recommendations about books on the bookshelves. They have an amazing kid section that I would’ve loved when I was little. For such a small store, they try and pack every genre.”

5075 S Hamilton Rd, Groveport, OH 43125, United States

“This turned out to be a great adventure! This collection includes items that are truly remarkable. The detail and history were perfectly laid out for any age group, and you could spend hours and hours here and never lose interest. Warren Matt's the owner curator has spent a lifetime collecting items of historical significance that rivals any museum experience I have ever encountered. I urge anyone or any family with children of any age to visit here. I left, having witnessed history never before seen. A real eye opener. Fantastic afternoon spent and enjoyed!”

27 9th St, Lynchburg, VA 24504, United States

“We have a membership and haven't regretted it! Two things to watch for: they have limited hours and days during certain seasons and the paint booth in the basement also has limited hours (I believe only open after lunch). Check ahead so you don't promise your children you'll go... and then they are closed! Speaking from experience. It's a great place for a school or homeschool field trip. **Sorry for weird angles or not full views of things but I try to not get faces in the videos/pictures for privacy sake.”

200 Qubein Ave, High Point, NC 27262, United States

“An absolutely charming, well planned, well run and beautiful children's museum. The exhibits are thoughtful, fun, educational, and engaging. Both my 5 and 11 year old boys found lots to do and had a great time. The carousel is charming and …”

101 Upper Rd, Kohler, WI 53044, United States

“If you are thinking about building your dream kitchen or bath, you should visit here for ideas. Factory tours are offered Monday - Friday and the overall esthetics of Kohler is a beautiful little town. The basement is a museum to the history and initiatives of Kohler while the main floor has kitchen and bath products and concepts, with the 3rd floor a series of bathroom designs to see how everything comes together. Designers are on hand to help with your ideas.”

Columbia Point, Boston, MA 02125, United States

“The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is the nicest of the 6 Presidential Libraries I’ve been to. Little Know fact of the 5 or 6 buildings with a Presidential Seal JFK Commissioned the one in Boston’s historic Custom House which sits on Freedom Trail. Look up in the rotunda. The John F. Kennedy Library has a modern art feel to the building design and the interior is clean and well lit. Even the bathrooms were clean. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. There are a plethora of interesting historical displays on his election, time in office, wife’s roll and beautiful dresses as well as NASA Freedom 7 display. Many of the displays and halls are designed to replicate the Whitehouse during his time in office.”

454 New Holland Ave, Lancaster, PA 17602, United States

“I took grandkids, ages 5 &7, on Dec.27. They loved this climbing bridge a LOT. There were many activities for younger to older children, both fun and educational. We spent about 2.5 hours there, but the kids would have climbed more if we had time. A great indoor experience, would definitely go back. $12 very reasonable.”

1 Electric Wy, Washington, PA 15301, United States

“We had a wonderful time during the Christmas Trolley Ride with Santa. The new museum is incredibly sleek and modern with amazing pieces of history inside. Staff is knowledgeable and happy to answer questions and share information. We can't wait to come back and explore more!”

“Super cute museum! No food except a vending machine when I went on a sunday but it was a fun experience. My daughter and niece loved it! Great for little kids!”

10 7th St W, St Paul, MN 55102, United States

“This place is great! My niece had a great time and burned off a ton of energy running around. I loved all the signage encouraging ages 1 to 100+ to enjoy different parts of the museum. I appreciated that in almost every area, there was an older kid version and a younger kid version which made the museum really diverse. Highly recommend the ball launcher area!”

15080 Livingston Rd, Naples, FL 34109, United States

“I came on a rainy Sunday when the parking lot was completely full, but inside I would not call it overwhelming and every kid had areas to play on their own. There were no exhibits closed. Everything was open other than the outside area which shuts during the rain, something to be aware of. I’ve been to a couple Other children’s museums, this one had the most natural light, and also felt the most “airy” with multiple atriums. I would also say this children’s museum is probably the most creative I’ve been to, including a fun socks, sliding area that’s kind of like ice-skating. The reason for four stars not five is the pricing model, which is $20 for both kids and adults. It’s pretty obvious everything is made for kids to play with, to charge the same for adults who don’t take up any activities seems odd, and for us bringing grandparents Cost $40 extra. Why not charge $30 per child in $10 per adult? That way it also disincentives one adult from bringing many children who aren’t supervised (which is the current incentive).”

1830 Royal Ln, Dallas, TX 75229, United States

“I loved my experience here at IRC. Everything was very clean, including well-kept bathrooms. I visited with my younger cousins who were 7 and 12 and my grandparents who were in their 50s. It was a fun trip for the entire family. We were all marveled by the extreme attention to detail and loved the fact that every part of the exhibit was either factual or biblical. Plus, the planetarium has 3 different showings, so we will be back!!”

315 W Genesee Ave, Saginaw, MI 48602, United States

“My family really had fun here. The gift store was reasonably priced and they had a cost room with lockers. Snacks were also available for purchase along with gift cards. Everything was operable and fun to interact with. The museum had Santa available seasonally and train track. We even played family hide and seek while we were here. It was a blast. Recommend!”

110 N Harrison Ave, Lafayette, CO 80026, United States

“My husband and I took our kiddos here to celebrate our daughter's 2nd birthday and it was the best idea that we could have come up with. There are so many activities for little kids to enjoy - inside and outside. Highly recommend!”

25 Ann St, Charleston, SC 29403, United States

“We came here with our 6 and 3 year old daughters and they both had a blast here! It's not a huge place, but there's plenty to keep kids entertained including multiple indoor play areas, an art area, and some outdoor activities as well. Our kids had a blast going between the different sections over and over. Prices were a little high, but you should be able to get a few hours of entertainment out of this place. Overall, I recommend checking out this museum for anyone with younger kids.”

1135 E Arques Ave, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, United States

“Great variety of options. We did chaos at the galleria and finished with 5 minutes to spare. We were given one tiny clue. Their puzzles are intricate and varied with something for everyone to solve. The time limit felt appropriate. Some puzzles are harder than others. But none felt impossible. Sometimes it helps to have fresh eyes.”
