Edwardsville Children's Museum

Went here for a birthday party and was blown away! I didn't host the party so I'm not sure on pricing but we had the whole place to ourselves!! So many cool things to touch and play with and use imaginations. I didn't take pictures of everything. There is a back entrance that has a ramp if you need one. Unfortunately, it was raining because the outside part looked really incredible too. The employees were friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone and am looking forward to going back. Another insanely successful birthday party! Bathroom was spacious and clean and designed to be child friendly! Really want to go back soon! And the LEGO part is coming soon!

The children's museum was nice. It looks small from the outside but it offers many things. I think they should sell energy drinks to parents.

We wanted something to do close to home instead of driving over to St. Louis. We decided to try here. It is set up very nicely. Several rooms with different things to play with and let kids use their imagination. There is upstairs in several areas. They have workers that go round to the areas and alway picking up and putting stuff in the proper location if no child is using it so it says pretty clean. They have a nice out side area also and looks like they are adding more stuff to the outside. I plan on going back when things start to warm up and spend more time outside. Their bathrooms have toddler potty training seat, changing table steps so kids can wash their hands and a diaper genie plus reg trash can. It's only $8 for the day. Definitely well worth it.

The price isn't bad, especially the family membership ($100 for 1 year). There is SO much to do. We were there for 2hrs, and my kid (1.5 yo) played with a fraction of what's available indoors. Outdoors has a lot too, will explore more when the snow clears. :)

Mostly set up for dramatic/pretend play, and not a lot of interactive exhibits like you would find at the Magic House, for example. The AR room with the deer didn't work around (and there wasn't anything to color anyway), a lot of stuff was broken or not working (no mallets on the wooden marimba outside), and only two balls to play with in the room containing the ramps and gears. My four year old was easily bored and we came and went within an hour.
