Can't say enough awesome things about this museum. Went with 4-year-old and barely made it off the first floor in 4 hours. People there are so friendly, so many interesting things to do.

Whether it's behind the wheel of a car, in a video installation of falling letters or learning how to grow a garden, this museum offers interactive exhibits for the young tinkerer, artist and more.

Parking/tickets are a bit pricey, water floor fun. Bring change of clothes for kids, they will get soaked. May want to bring water shoes, floor is a little slick, drain holes can hurt little toes.

Kids had a blast, plenty for them to do. I enjoyed seeing the Mr Roger's puppets. Parking was tight but we got a spot.

Did you know? The museum building first opened in 1897 as the main post office for the city of Allegheny; which was annexed by Pittsburgh in 1907 and is now known as Pittsburgh's North Side. Read more

Unreal. Best one I've seen. I'm from Buffalo and we need to really step our game up.

This place is awesome! If you can still catch the Daniel Tiger exhibit you will be in luck!

There is an equivalent to this museum in Toronto, Ontario, Canada which is the Ontario Science Center. This museum is less crowded though.

An enormous, airy, awesome place where your kids can run free exploring for hours, and you can be equally stimulated by the smart exhibits. Don’t miss: The replica of Mister Roger’s Neighborhood!

Get a reciprocal membership! Gets you admission to this and other participating kids' museums around the country (there's a LOT) for a year.

If you park in lot with big fish above it they will valley pal cars behind you so you'll be suck shifting for one of the rude valet attendants to move cars around

One of the best children museum I've visited

This museum was inspired by the television show “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood.” Ride the life-size replica of his trolley and open the alphabet doors to discover surprises.

There is so much to do! My son had a tough time focusing on one thing.

Be sure to ask about their Veterans' Discount! FREE admission for any Armed Forces Veteran with proof of service.

Great for kids of ALL ages!

A little pricey for a one-off visit for out-of-towners ($11/adult, $10/kiddo), but at $99 for a family membership for a year? Definitely worth the price.

Kid museum. Kids fun. Water

Another good idea (if its warm enough) is to bring swimwear for kids in water area. And a towel.
David VolneyJuly 1, 2016
Many hands on stuff for all the if my kids.
andrea boykowyczJanuary 26, 2010
Always bring a full change of clothes and your kid's own poolside sandals. Water just ends everything.
