This museum is a wonderful experience for children, however gets over-crowded at times. Limited parking availability is also an issue. If you time your visit just right you can get the free, on-site parking and enjoy a quieter time. more

The Magic House in St. Louis is absolutely magical, regardless of age. I visited 20 years ago as a child and thought it was for 'older' kids - but after a friend's constant raving, took my toddler and preschooler and WOW is all I can say. There is SO much to do - it is a different experience each time... more

We had the best time in St. Louis. We took two young children under 3 along with us and they had a blast. We went to the city museum which was fun and a bit creepy all at the same time. We went to the arch and saw the beautiful sight, but our favorite place was the Magic House! Oh... more

We took advantage of the free night on Fridays after 5:30pm. We are on a tight budget and did not want to pay the hefty price. Thank goodness we didn't., because it would have been a waist of our money. It was more stress than it is worth. I was very excited about taking my children 2 1/2 and 1.... more

First-make sure you research the internet for a coupon-cause we were able to get in pretty cheap!! It was fun and my kids loved it!! I have a 10 year old and a 7 year-they had a blast!! I would almost say that it seemed alittle young for my children, but they loved it. It was very controlled with helpers... more

Went on a busy Saturday, hundreds of people there. Many kids running around with no adult supervision. Two kids ran into each other on one of the attractions and the parents exchanged words, wouldnt have happened if one child had just waited his turn. At another display my daughter was using a boy came up and pushed her away and... more

My daughter was 6 the first time I took her to the magic house, and we had to return to see it again after the remodeling. The first time we went in the evening and had the place nearly to ourselves, this time it was absolutely packed! On a Tuesday! My daughter loved the courtroom and oval office, but crowds... more

There is a lot to do for children (and even more now as the new wing is opened - complete with the Oval Office and the Legislative Chambers where children can give speeches just like the President). While other children's museums seem to teach the children about things like science, math, etc; this one seems more of a play place.... more

What an amazing children's museum, but there was almost too much to see. We were there 4 hours and still did not see it all. Even though we thought the admission was a little high, it was well worth it. Bring your camera and an extra battery cause you will take a ton of pictures, this along with the Zoo... more
