Please Touch Museum invites children of all ages to interact with imaginary worlds. You'll notice that the exhibits feature movie props and items from popular children's stories, like the walking piano from the film "Big" or more than three decades of "Star Wars" toys. All exhibits and displays are kid friendly and made to be touched. Be sure to enjoy the Woodside Park carousel from 1908 that's been rebuilt in the museum.

Even when super busy on a Saturday morning, I LOVED sharing time with my 14 month old grandson at this museum. The line up for the carousal went super quick. My only complaint was the long slow line.... more

Kids had a great time and didn’t want to leave. Cost was higher than I would expect for what they had but has potential to be made even better.

Great place to take the kids every so often, typically whenever the special exhibit changes. My daughter loves the grocery shopping area sponsored by Giant. So much fun and very interactive to keep the kids entertained. Also keep an eye on the special events going on for the day. Arts and crafts, story time and other things are nice to participate in amongst all the other areas. Would recommend getting there first thing so you don't have to wait to get in.

This place is awesome for little kids. My babies are 5 and 0 and there truly is a little something for everyone here. There are so many cool interactive exhibits and imaginary play spaces for the kiddos that you could easily spend a few hours there. You can either pack your own snacks or grab something from the cafe. There is cafeteria seating available for lunch and refillable water bottle stations throughout. They even have a cute little theatre where they do different shows. They did such a cool Kwanzaa presentation last month. A bonus is that they also have an indoor carousel. $5 for unlimited rides. Definitely money and time well spent.

Absolute gem of a place. Excellent place for 1 to 6 or even 7 year old kids to have fun in many areas. Place to have fun with water, painting, grocery store set, pizza and cake kitchen and lots more interesting things for kids. My son loved it so much that I’m thinking of bringing him here at least once a month. There is a carousel as well with unlimited rides. There is a parking facility but you can also park in the near by streets. Highly recommend this place .

This place is amazing. I have a 10month old granddaughter and I was skeptical that there would be enough for her to do. Not only is is there plenty for all ages but the staff there are very interactive with the kids and engaged her completely. They have a cafe there that was good. The pizza was better than average and they have a case of Bassetts ice cream. The accessibility is good. I could easily navigate the museum with my scooter and easily access the bathrooms. Parking was accessible and easy to reach from the building entrance.

The kids definitely enjoyed themselves. I took off a star because I feel there's much more they could do with such a big building! We enjoyed the workshops they offered as well! The rocket launcher was a huge hit with everyone who went back there (not just our family). The Alice in wonderland theme was very fun! Hard to maneuver with anything outside of a umbrella stroller, but still fun!
