2.5 hours and still didn't see it all. Bring spare clothes as the water play options and art area could get messy if that's your kid (or you). Looking forward to returning!
Bring snacks and a shirt to change kids. Excited for this place but it's half as big as it should be so the space in which to eat is a few tables and a vending machine.
There are so many fun activities for kids of every age in the museum , my son loves it! And the neighborhood is awesome. Great area to spend time with your family!
Take a change of clothes for the kids (and socks for you!) if you play in the water exhibit ! Amazing attention to detail - incredible place to take the kids! Would go back. A lot.
What an awesome Kids Museum . I wish Dallas had an option like this one. My kids had a blast !
Great interactive exhibits . They hold Thinkery 21 once a month for people 21 and older. Really fun!
Excellent place! They have aprons and crocs for the water activities , a place to eat your own snacks and a ton of cool exhibits !
My 2 year old has a blast exploring everything but his favorite is the giant water table. Bring an extra set of clothes !!
Fantastic, educational place to bring the kids. So much to do. Check out the water room - the kids love it.
Great museum . If you have littler ones check out the baby bloomer hours.
Fantastic place for the kids to explore - great combination of fun and learning. Be sure to check out the water experiments on the 2nd floor
Tons of hands on activities for young children (and their grown ups) to participate in!
Love the musical waterworks she loves getting all wet we wear shorts or skirts from now on.
It's a little overpriced so try to go on a discount day - check their website for days! Fun exhibits but will only last you about 4 hours.
Plenty of activities to keep the kiddos entertained. Staff was always present and constantly cleaning toys . Baby Boomers program on Saturday mornings is great for little ones.
A great place for kids of all ages. There are activities for everyone, from the youngest toddlers to the older elementary school kids.
Cool place to go with the kids. But you have to know where to park , you can usually use the garage nextdoor for free.
Great place for the kiddos & parents!! Lots of great activities , exhibits , & an awesome outdoor playground . 👍👍
Awesome children's museum & extremely interactive! I had a blast as a full grown adult
Bring extra clothes ...I garantee your kids will get wet and the hand dryers take to long
Not as great at the Houston Children's Museum by any means. It's much smaller with less engaging activities . However, it's cheaper & if you need things to do with a kid it will occupy about an hour.
Parking near the entrance is tough, but there is a free parking garage on the north side of the building
All the activities for the children, the playground right outside and the pond
So much fun for the imagination and beyond!
Make sure you see the Light Lab and the water room . Too fun, even if you're not a kid!
Looks like alot of fun for the kids...I'm looking forward to bring my 7 yr old daughter when it opens.
Lots of fun areas for kids of every age to play
Super cool! Adults & kids will enjoy this place
Really cool place, had a blast with my nephew!
They have a lot of interactive activities for the kids.
Come on community nights - Wed, 5-8 pm - much less crowded and more fun!!
Can't wait for this amazing children's museum to open!
Great for kids parties, grandparents to take their grandkids, and school field trips
The lockers are $1. Just do it.
Honestly a little underwhelmed. Neat gadgets to be sure but folks had hyped this up like it was as cool as a KISS concert . And $10 a pop?!
Every kid (3, 6, 9 y.o.) in the family enjoyed it! Coming back soon.
Great place, my daughters loved it.
Great exhibits and tons to do!
Great place for toddlers
Fantastic place for kids!!
All the kid activies
The animation workshop was the girls favorite.
Awesome! Happy Birthday Emily!
Play the hydraulophone
Only about 2 hours of entertainment for us
Avoid during Spring Break... If you can.
