My 5 year old could've stayed here for 5 hours. Easily. We've been to quite a few children's museums - this is one of the better ones.

this museum is extensive and takes hours to see it all. The kid's area has many interactive spots,and a tree house to climb.There is a strong educational component, and there is an IMAX theatre. The location is beautiful, in a former train station from WWII, that is well maintained, and large. Overall, a fun day for the kids.
This is one of the best Children's museums out there. My kids love it! There is even some things for parents to do as well.
My kids are 7 and 9 and loved every second of it. The area is well kept and busy for kids of all ages. Something for all ages. My kids went from one place to another. The way the area is set up it is very easy to watch two children in different play areas at the same time. As...

As my kids have gotten older, they love the tree house and the other areas meant for older kids. Worth a membership...

I found the childrens area very worn out and dated. However the kids seemed to have fun. For the price of admission you would think that could perform some updates and repairs
A great place to go with the kids, especially during the holidays, with the train exhibits, although we love the bat caves and the glacier areas as well.
Good for smaller kids, maybe 6 and under. My kids had a great time! Can do it all in about 3 hours. Showing it's age though. Some of The Woods is closed off. Some pulley ropes are worn, or not functioning.
For more to do check out the Natural History Museum. Especially the Glacier area and sand box.
