Visitor tip
Plan to arrive early and visit the Art Studio first, as it closes 30 minutes before the museum closes. This ensures you have adequate time for hands-on creative activities without time pressure.
Visitor tip
The museum's low walls throughout all play areas allow parents to supervise children from almost anywhere, making it ideal for families with multiple children of different ages who want to play in separate areas.
Visitor tip
Check the museum's Facebook page regularly for updates on weekly classes (music, art, and STEM programs) and special events like Late Night at the Museum and Boohaha Museum Spooktacular, which offer unique experiences beyond regular play.

What visitors say
This place needs a major overhaul. We arrived & left with no intetaction or greeting from the 3 staff members hanging around chatting between themselves. The place is not clean … floors , toys & all stuffed animals are dirty $ should…
Nice place to unwind your kids and explore. Legos/Duplos. Vehicles to ride around. Art room with lots of papers, paints, markers and what nots to enhance your creation. Kitchen. Vet’s office. Bricks to build. Stage with costumes.…
Not a lot to do here. Was not very impressed. The only cool thing about it was the location. Also staff is not appropriately dressed for working in a place with young children. The short skirt showing her bottom is highly inappropriate.
