2 weeks agoWe love coming here for the permanent things to do like the surfboard climber, the treehouse slide, the put-on-the-weather-forecaster-jacket to be on TV, Firefighter complete with sliding pole, shopping experience, and more. The seasonal activity is a simulated ice rink with plastic floor and felt snowballs--a real Florida kids ice skating experience. The interactive coloring and science events are always fun. A separate area for younger ones allows them to explore fine motor skills like puzzles and gross motor equipment in their own space. Free parking with a circle drop-off and pick-up drive in a lot shared by another daytime venue and a restaurant. Free wheel chair van access spaces with long curb cuts. wheel chair access in the museum except for the surfboard climber, treehouse, and the step up to firetruck. The Creative Corner houses several Florida small animals like turtle, lizard, and snake. Today very loud acoustical music that contributed to the sensory input Wheel chair access all gender restroom with 5 ft x 5 ft area, 2 grab bars, and diaper changer.

10 months agoThe kids loved this museum. The Publix shopping pretend play area was a favorite. This museum allows children to be as creative as they want to be. The workers are keep an eye out while cleaning up behind the children as they play with everything and they do it with genuine pleasure. I would visit again and recommend to all parents or grandparents with young children.

a month agoThe place seemed great and had a lot of unique play areas. I docked them a star because I brought my 10 year old, thinking this had more museum style exhibits but this place is geared toward little kids. I'm thinking kids under 8 years old would have a blast. Any older than that and there isn't much to do.
