We were searching for a place to entertain the little ones (6 and 4) while the men golfed, so we tried the Children's Museum. We drive past it nearly every 10 days and haven't stopped, and we're sorry we didn't bring the now older grandchildren here. The minute we got inside, they were fully engaged, first running to the replica... More

What a great place to bring your kids. This is a compact, small town kid's museum, but it really works. The fire engine is great for climbing on. The little bridges and tree are fun too. But the best is saved for upstairs... the ball machine. Its indescribable, but fun for kids and adults alike. If you've got kids under... More

We.re members at the museum but live in CT. Every visit we make to Paso includes dropping the kids off here with a babysitter and they always have a blast. They can create their own games in the ball maze/netting on the second floor, play dress up, pretend to go shopping in the 'market' or climb on the firetruck downstairs.... More

We visited here with our young baby (2 yr old) and had a lot of fun. Baby was especially entertained w/2nd floor where the mini-supermarket is. She loved pushing around the shopping cart and "buying things." The little play pizza shop on the 2nd floor was also fun for her. She also liked the shooting ball area in the middle... More

Children from 2 -10 can keep themselves busily happy here. Staff provides hands on activities, plus lots of free exploration in many exhibits. 2 stories access by steps or elevator, sometimes the lower level has activities also, so really 3 stories. Old firehouse lends itself to fun on 1st floor, with real firetruck.

We try to visit the museum on a regular basis. It may be small but has fun ideas and a big heart! There is always an art project to do, fun permanent exhibits, and a great pizza kitchen play area. We have been coming here since my daughter was 2, and have always had a fun time. We feel it... More

Not a lot of Bang for your buck. The Museum is very expensive and there are only about 6-8 things to do.

We took our granddaughter when she was 2 and her attention span wasn't very long. But every year when she visits she asked to go there. Now she is 4 and she spent at least 2 hours in there and she seems to enjoy it.
