Hands On Children's Museum.. My Kids Love it. We have a membership to the Hands on Children's Museum.. For every day admission, I think it's 3.50 for ages 1-3 and for ages 4 on up including adults is $5.50.. You can't even go to the zoo for that price!!

We stay an average of 2-4 hours.. My kids would sleep there if I let them!!! There is a post office, a grocery store, a vet's office, a basketball area with wheel chairs, a bank, a dress up area, a place just for small people under 3, there are also other exibits all of which my children LOVE!! I have had my 1 year old who cried when we had to leave (He wanted to stay longer) all the way up to age 15 they also loved it... We have had several birthday parties there and let me tell you, the men always end up playing basket ball and having as much fun as the adults!!!

I give this place 5 stars.. You can play all day!! We got a yearly membership which is cheap compared to all of the other memberships out there zoo, and other places!!!

If you haven't been, you've got to bring your children!! They will love it and it gives you a chance to be a kid again too!!

Indoor fun to teach the little ones about the big world outside.. Overview
Set on a busy commuter strip, this castle-like building is filled with playful exhibits for little ones to interact with and discover the world around them. A place for entire families to play, every nook and cranny is stuffed with things like puppets, paints and toys. It's the sneaky way to teaching--kids learn while having fun.

The Experience
The Winn-Dixie Little Grocery store has real cash registers, carts, a bakery and deli where kids can be the employees helping customers or shoppers planning for dinner. They can open a bank account and write checks at the Kids Mini Bank or learn how mail travels at the Little Post. Then there's just plain fun in the bubble room where suds and giggles coexist. The wee little ones (ages 3 and under) can roll around in the First Adventures room and playhouse.
