What parents say
The Children’s Museum of Sonoma County is pure magic the kind of place where learning feels like play and every corner holds a new adventure waiting to be discovered. From the moment we walked in, our kids were captivated by the hands-on exhibits that seem perfectly designed to spark curiosity and creativity.
hidden gem for kids we were visiting from out of town and looked up play place for kids near me and came across this, we spent 3 hours staying busy with unique activities my kids are 1&5 and they loved it super cute! 16$ for 1 year olds and older but they do have discount options if you have ebt or wic, ext.
This has become one of our families frequent stops while passing through Santa Rosa. The museum is well maintained and the various displays and activities are very engaging. There are both indoor and outdoor activities, and both areas have ample seating for parents.
Toddler heaven! My 22 month old loved every corner, nook and cranny whether inside or outside! Perfect place to bring your toddler/s to get their energy out. They thought of everything a toddler could want to see, touch, and play! Went here on Friday and they had Musical Story-Telling in the morning.
Bringing a toddler?
