Staff members are always exceptional.
One of the few upsides of sending my children to a DPS is the experience theyve had in visiting the Detroit Childrens Museum. Its a lovely quaint little space where children can play and explore. They were presented with an education on leaves and left in hand with an art project. The staff was friendly and accommodating and seemed to really enjoy their positions of cultivating the curiosity of our youth. As others have stated it is only open to, ehem, Detroits Children, and nothing on their website should lead you to believe otherwise. Its nice that DPS has this space exclusively for their children, especially in a time where kids of Detroit seem to be excluded from so many places in the tri-county area by way of cost and even the general hospitality usually extended to those who have to travel to give their kids such experiences. My only gripe would be not having perhaps special days maybe once or twice a month where DPS parents could visit with their children- Id be willing to even pay a small fee for that. Hands down a good experience
Its a great place to bring your children learn about history of science and for me it brings back memories being there as a kid
There are so many jewels in history here you must bring your kids to very kid-friendly the atmosphere is amazing
Fun and educational for kids of all ages.
I had fun with my grand daughter there. Good place to visit .
Very polite and friendly. Cool little activity for kids. Oil
I guess if we want the museum to be open to Detroit Metro, Metro needs to help financially support the Museums or the state needs to step up. We need to tell our representatives in MI&DC to not cut funding to the Arts&Ed
My students and always have a wonderful learning experience.
Took grand children today. Website said open today 9 to 4. NOT! Sign on door says open to DPS only. Common sense says put that on the website! Apparently the staff lacks in that department.
Love this place
Need more free parking
I like this museum especially the free books.
Great place to take the kids
My little brothers absolutely adored this museum ! they were talking about all the things that they learned the entire way home! Im so glad its reopened it also boasts the little planetarium for the kids too ! best fieldtrip theyve evere had!
Wonderful exhibits, interactive, fun for all
Why is this museum being advertised on local Detroit stations when it is NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC? This makes no sense whatsoever! Since it is open to DPS schools only...wouldnt the DPS schools KNOW THIS thus no need to show on television. NOT all school age children ATTEND DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOLS...but would benefit from the experience of the Childrens Museum. Can someone figure this out..how hard it is actually?
It seemed out to me this was closed on a Saturday?
Nice
Same as other reviewers. It says it is open, drove all the way down here, = NOT OPEN
Great fun
Website said open today. When I got down there it was closed - one very angry grandma and two sad kids.
Not open to the general public :(
