I got a deal for this place on Groupon so we took our two kids ages 4 and 6. It's a small place but it kept my kids busy for 3 hours. The water play area was my sons favorite while my daughter prefered the plexiglass wall painting area. Not sure what their regular price is but for $16 for... More

This museum is cute and hands on, but very small. It's geared towards the very young, I'd say less than age 4. The young kids really seemed to enjoy it, but its a little pricey for such a short trip. It was also extremely crowded on a Saturday, so I'd recommend trying to go during the week.

There is just a ton of things to do such as crafts, dress up, play house, interactive displays and just play with new friends. The staff do a great job of keeping everything neat and keeping the kids busy.

The Sacramento Children's Museum is the size of a storefront. There are only a handful of exhibits but the kids enjoy them. Our kids are almost 4 and almost 2. They can both play there for hours, but I don't think older kids would last that long. Everything there is geared towards younger toddlers and kids. I think we can... More

Sacramento waited a long time for a Children's Museum, and this one doesn't disappoint. We purchased a membership last summer and will be renewing it. My 4yo and 1yo both enjoy visiting. There is an art area, a water play area, a dress-up area which my son really enjoys, and post office, market and play house areas great for pretend... More

Good place if you have an hour or two to kill. I would recommend it for children 6 and under. My 7 year old was not impressed except with the arts and crafts area. It does get quite crowded because it is so small, and unfortunately not all parents supervise their children so you have to watch that the younger... More
