I dislike driving into the city for anything, but the Phoenix Children's Museum was amazing!! Both my 2 year old and 8 month old had a BLAST! There was so much to see and do, we didn't get to half of it! I actually can't wait to go back and explore some more. The art room on the second floor... More

First, let me admit that I simply do NOT enjoy being around lots of screaming children! But, when my daughter asked me to accompany her when she took my two grandsons (ages 7 and almost 2) to the Phoenix Children's Museum, I said yes. Those two boys had an absolute blast! Every room is a different experience and the gigantic... More

The Phoenix Children's Museum is a wondrous place for children from ages one to twelve. The first thing you see when you walk in is this wondrously tall climbing tower. The best thing about it is that it is in a confined space so that while the children are playing, you do not have to worry about them getting out... More

You could stay there all day with your children and have a blast. It is very creative and well planned. We went on a Sunday morning at 10 AM and left about 2 PM when it started getting crowded. I usually get bored during these things, but not here. It was wonderful and worth every penny of the $11 fee... More

We brought our 2 grandsons from CA. there while there parents went on vacation in Mexico. The boys are 5 & 10 years old. The oldest was not happy going to a children's museum but after we got inside he didn't want to leave. It's geared for 3-11 year old kids. If your child is younger and stuck in a... More

Loved it. My kids are 3 and 1 and it's an amazing place. So well thought out. Little pricy to get it but very worth it.

This was a very interactive, 3 story museum geared to the younger set. One the main floor ( and soaring up to the 3rd floor) is a fantastic climbing exhibit that seems to be a hit with the younger set, and even the parents. The kids were drawn to it, and just had a wonderful time exploring the 'flying' bathtub,... More
