I love museums (except modern art museums) because I love learning. That includes children's museums, and I have been to fantastic ones in other cities. But, I have never been here before....

This place is just awful. I can't even see how it would be entertaining to a toddler. Plenty of nonsense exhibits with just random items that are 20-30 years old. A lot of the interactive stuff...

Went for a night hosted by a local queer community and absolutely loved it. The exhibit on Leonardo Di Vinci's inventions was hands on and very entertaining. Also loved the planetarium show.
