    Good place to take your kid regardless ages. They will enjoy something, although older kids will enjoy more. The water games are fun, bring extra cloth. They have water guard but will still get wet.

    As with all children's museums beware of kids putting fingers in their mouth after playing with the exhibits, especially if they were in the water! Or you may have a suprise to clean up in 24 hours!

    Annual membership is $100 for the family. A great deal with three kids to allow them to experience all exhibits on your time.

    I drop my 6 kids off at the door before they open and pick them up at closing time. There is a bar just down the street where I hang out while they entertain themselves. It's like daycare but cheaper!

    Really great place. Vending machines are pretty expensive. We bring microwave food, like easy Mac and stay all day.
