“Good experience, except food”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 20, 2012

I took my 2 daughters (ages 5 and 9 months) here today and we had a great time. It is much smaller than what we are used to, the Indianapolis Childrens Museum but we had a great time. My older daughter loved the pet hospital and the woods. I probably wouldnt go back only because we hadpve a much better option to us locally but our time there was nice. We hated the food at the restaurant, portions were small and low quality. There was one thin slice of turkey on my sandwich and my daughters chicken strip meal included 2 stripes the size of mcdonalds nuggets. Also no refills on the fountain drinks.

“Fun for the kids”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 17, 2012 via mobile

It is a place to keep the kids entertained! My kids truly had fun and fell right asleep afterwards. Very inexpensive also. My kids are 1 and 3 and they really enjoyed themselves!

“Wonderful”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 1, 2012

It has a wonderful handson waterplay area. My children loved playing in the "woods" when they were little. There is a fun ball drop area. It is very educational and has lots of handson activities.
