My granddaughter (7) was a little to big for this museum, It's more for younger children but is a nice place to go.

We took our 2.5 year old. I think it is fun for about 1-1.5 hours, not more. Some of the exhibits were broken or under construction which is a shame, I hope they fix them soon! We really liked the bank, pizza making shop and the cave with dinosaur bones. Also really liked the car fixing station, a good challenge 😉

I cannot recommend this museum enough! We've been members for a couple of months now and have loved every visit! It's perfect for toddlers and young kids, and the "baby garden" area is great for infants who are crawling. The water table and auto repair play areas are our favorites! The small Wegmans is also great. I am hoping that the new expansion will have a small cafeteria or area to enjoy lunch or a snack since toddlers always seem to need refueling.

My wife and I took our 3YO and 1YO for the 2hr Christmas event. Our kids enjoyed the interactive exhibits and could've stayed all day. We're looking forward to the noon years eve celebration.
