Everything a toddler mother could hope for-Educational, hands-on,plenty to climb & explore. Its pretty empty on weekdays so my child never had to wait to play & its age appropriate for very young kids

I have been to many children's museum but this one is very arts and crafty. My favorites were clay section and paper tracing to make your own superhero.

Did you know? The museum 's sustainably designed building is one of the first green museums in California. The recycled building materials used include furniture made of recycled road signs. Read more

I think there should be a map or something to guide visitors around but overall we had fun. Perfect place for an unplanned day

Amanda Reuss

In June, NCM members get entry to the Railroad Museum and the MOPA in Balboa Park .

For kids young and old. Beautiful spaces for kids to explore. Tip: Don't go on the free Target-sponsored Sundays. Either you'll stand in line far too long to get in, and/or the museum is too crowded .

Molly Meadows

The new trash exhibit is not as toddler friendly as the past exhibit . My daughter gets bored after about a half hour there now.

Awesome climbing playground ! The real playground is to the left of the swings , only open during museum hours.

Genevieve Suzuki

A wonderful spot to inspire young minds while allowing parents some time to collect themselves in an artsy environment!

The musuem is more fun than the playground . What a joke! That's not a playground , its two swings and a cement wall.
