Hours of fun education! Although some of it could use a refresher or update, it's totally worth it. The staff was kind and friendly, and we had plenty to do. I kept thinking we'd seen everything, and then we'd round a corner to discover more! Some areas were perfect for under 4 years, while others were better for 5+ years. I would say the prime focus is on kids ages 2-10, but any students will benefit from their time here. I had a blast too!
I remember visiting this museum when I was in elementary. Now years later I brought my son to experience it and he had a great time. The Food 4 Less section was the main thing I remembered when I visited many years ago. We went early morning so there wasn’t a lot of people but I didn’t mind. I will say it was a little cold inside but besides that it was great to reminisce and see my son have a great time. Some of the displays did have buttons that didn’t work luckily a kid’s imagination works around that.
I went there today Saturday November 1st, 2025. With my son who is 8 with autism. He really loved it, He was so happy. He loved the area where the vehicles are and the eye thing and the small slide play structure. And he loved going to the food 4 less grocery area. He went there and he came back. He did look and was at the other things there but he was more interested and invested in those two areas only. We spent 3 hours. We are from Oakland,CA. I've never taken him to a museum before whatsoever and thats because I always had a difficult time with him, taking him out and taking places etc. That's all been tough. But things have been getting good as I be taking him more often and hes been doing good and I love that he listens to me. But he loved this place. I definitely recommend. And I love how there was not too many people or overcrowded because for my son I prefer it that way. But it was nice. I enjoyed my time there with my son. He was happy and he had fun and thats all that matters to me. Definitely recommend this place for the kids. Also the price is good. $10
my grand children love it. they have fun with the food 4less shopping section, the ambulance, fire truck, and oh! i love the area where they allow kids to do arts and craft.
This was such an awesome place. Very reasonable entry fee. So much to do and so entertaining. My daughter had a blast and asked to come back again another time. They had a cute scavenger hunt with a prize at the end. Cute gift shop with super affordable items. Nice playground with a picnic area in the back. Highly recommend for kids 10 and below.
