💬 What Visitors Say
- Bring extra clothes for children as water play is a major attraction year-round, even in winter. Kids tend to get thoroughly wet and stay longer than expected.

- All puppet shows and performances are included with admission—don't miss these as they're a major highlight. Check the schedule for shows during your visit (seasonal performances available May-July).
- Membership pays for itself quickly with unlimited free admission year-long plus 10% discount at The Shop and birthday party discounts. It's especially valuable if you visit 3+ times annually.
- This museum is best-suited for children ages 6 and under who can fully enjoy all exhibits. If you have older children, plan accordingly or combine with nearby attractions. EBT card holders receive discounted admission.
