  • Entertaining for very little kids.
  • Seemed like a mish mash of items thrown together.

“Unless things have changed in the past few years since our initial visit to the museum, I'm sorry to say that I wasn't very impressed with the capital city's 'attempt' at putting together a Children's Museum. I used to live in Las Vegas and their CM is superb compared to what I found there. At the time we visited, my younger son was about 2, so he didn't care, but his 11 year old brother was bored to tears. I felt as if someone had trolled through town and picked up garage sale items and called it a "museum". We're due to go back soon, so I will check it out, and hope to find something better. If not, go to Sin City and see their kids' museum. It is awesome!”
