After having visited many children's museums in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Kentucky and Connecticut we were disappointed by this children's museum. It is basically an upscale nature center with lots of live snakes. My kids who are 2 and 4 weren't even that impressed. more

Considering a visit to Troy/Albany, NY? You might read about the Junior Museum, a children's museum. It is a small place tucked away in a renovated building in a city setting. The exhibits are few and not worth the detour to find this place. I guess a business has to start somewhere, but when vacationing, keep passing through. more
