The Tot Spot on the third floor is best for the under 2 age group. While older siblings are allowed in, it really isn't a great place for them to spend a lot of time. If you have 2 or more adults in your group, plan to split up for a little while. The Basement level is a great place for older sibs to go while baby sibs are in Tot Spot. The outdoor Waterworks area can be potentially drenching! You may want to bring a dry set of clothes if your child is especially adventurous. The climbing tower in the middle of the museum has multiple entrances and exits. Plan accordingly! There are free lockers at the front of the museum (near the Fiddlesticks Gift shop). Drop your purse or diaper bag before exploring and free up your hands to play!

I always found this to be so fascinating and colorful! I remember walking in and immediately getting a penny pressed into the machine by the door and having a life-long souvenir. There is a toddler section which consists of a bunch of fun, safe and energetic things for the little ones to do without worrying about getting run over by the "big-kids". Please note, you will have to wear booties around your shoes before enteri...
