Fort Collins Museum of Discovery

A great little museum and lots of fun for kids. It has been pretty much exactly the same for a long time so it gets a little stagnant. My kids enjoy it but we're from out of town so we don't go on a very regular basis. They've even removed some of the old activities that were enjoyable and some of the current ones seem broken. Still like the place but I wish they would revamp it a little.

Great, hands on museum for kids and adults alike! Not a huge place but we took our time and our son had a blast. The music area in particular was really fun, it was cool to be able to play many different instruments, if your in FOCO or just don't mind the drive, this one should definitely be added to your list.

Several great exhibits. The toddler area is wonderful, lots of safe and clean stimulation. The music exhibits are fin and we'll laid out. A few other exciting play options. But lots of open and unused space, and traveling exhibits are often either not in residence at all or are underwhelming. Love museums, as do my kids. Nice place to visit, but I feel like there is a lot of unused potential here.

The Discovery Museum is an incredible place for kids to learn, explore, and let their curiosity run wild. With a wide range of interactive exhibits and hands-on activities, it creates an engaging environment where learning feels like play. From science experiments and creative art stations to fascinating displays about nature and technology, there’s something for every young mind to dive into. The museum does a fantastic job of blending education with fun, encouraging kids to ask questions, solve problems, and explore new ideas in a way that feels exciting and accessible. What truly sets the Discovery Museum apart is its thoughtful design and dedication to fostering curiosity in children of all ages. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and always eager to guide little explorers through different activities, making the experience both informative and memorable. Whether it’s building structures, experimenting with physics, or exploring the wonders of nature, the museum offers endless opportunities for discovery and growth. It’s the perfect place for families looking to combine fun with meaningful learning experiences, and it’s definitely a spot we’ll be returning to!

Very neat museum that teaches kids and adults so much about sound and music. It has a great area for learning about Colorado wildlife both past and present. My wife's favorite area is the tone matching machine...she hears a tone and then turns a dial to try to match the tone and it tells how close you are to the actual tone. My son liked playing the real drum set, my daughter liked the tornado simulator, and we all liked the magnetic wall with tubes for making a course for the golf balls. Very fun family place...takes about 90 minutes to truly enjoy it.
