I saw that on March 20th they were doing a special to commemorate Mr Rogers birthday and admission was free that day. I think that's a really cool way to keep his legacy alive. I don't have kids, but I love art so and really enjoyed my time here. I only stayed about an hour and half mainly because I was tired. All the kids looked like they were having so much fun. There were so many activities for them. I personally enjoyed the Charlie Harper exhibit I am wild. I love his nature artwork.i also enjoyed seeing the Mr Rogers Memrobellia since i grew up with him.i think the giant catapillar hanging over one of the stairs was my favorite. The cafe area was nice and spacious I liked the decor with the large globe shaped white orbs. I had a really good chocolate muffin. The kids menu was really cute. I ended my trip getting some Mr. Rogers gifts from the gift shop. The Daniel tiger magnet is so cute. Honestly, I really wanted to make a scarf in the scarf workshop. Maybe another day.

Our family and friends had a blast. Even on a busy day there is so much for the kids to play and do. We found it to be very clean and everything was well kept. The kids had a blast and that was all we could ask for.

Visited with friends while in town & walked out very pleased with our experience. This museum is filled with multiple floors of STEAM activities, water play & more. It kept the 2 young kiddos in our group fully engaged for hours & I found the price very reasonable for the quality + quantity of exhibits that are available. Overall, a great spot to spend time with kids & give them a bunch of fun, hands on learning opportunities ✌🏻

Awesome place for small kids or big kids. So many awesome exhibits and interactive activities. Our favorite is the third floor. It is a water play area. They have aprons for kids if they do not want to get wet. But most kids came with swim suits. They have an ice table that is super fun. But in the winter the room gets kinda chilly so you can’t spend too much time in there. The cafe on the main floor was very good and lots of food options for kids.

My wife and I had lots of fun here with our almost-2-year-old. There were tons of things like got her engaged and having fun. She especially loved the room where she could draw/color and the water play on the top floor. Definitely recommend bringing whatever you need to allow your kid(s) to have fun with the water play, probably even a bathing suit/extra change of clothes. Cool area where they have lots of fun things to do with water, which we weren’t expecting. Highly recommend for a fun afternoon with the kiddo(s).
