My son had so much fun here. Its a great inexpensive way to get out of the rain or heat and the kids are learning while having fun.

Brought my 4 year old and he had a blast!! They offer a wide variety of fun activities for children to learn and play with. The staff was helpful and knowledgeable. Prices are not to bad but I feel since parents are only there to supervise their children the price on adult omission could be a little cheaper.

Rather small, but not bad for the price. A few of the interactive exhibits didnt work right, and the way the art room was handled (open only certain times, but no posted schedule) was confusing.

We had a wonderful time at the Louisiana discovery children’s center. We took our two youngest children and they had a blast. We weren’t expecting so many different things to do at the center.

We visited here with two adults, a 13 year-old, an 8 year-old, and a 5 year-old. It cost $40 ($8 for each of us). I was looking to spend 3-4 hours in Hammond while waiting to get together with a friend.This was a great spot. The 13 year-old was bored, but we took walks around town while the other two kids enjoyed the museum.The bathrooms were very clean, as was the museum.No complaints.

For the price, there are better options. My kids only had fun for maybe an hour and then there was nothing left to do. They need more exhibits.

Great place for children to socialize and have fun. Lots and lots of activities . Cannot beat the experience for the price. Veterans get in free.

Such an adorable place for a birthday party! The kids (ages 1-10) loved it. And Mom and Dad didn’t have to break the bank to have it there.

Brought my 2 year old here and he loved it. Make sure you or your kid are wearing non skid shoes, the ramp by the bubble area can be slippery. Also the toddler area has the AC blasting towards it so pack a light sweater if youre like me and get cold easily, your little one will probably being having too much fun to notice though lol.

Super fun place to visit. Perfect for a school field trip.

The place is ok. My almost 2 year son ran around a good bit and seemed to enjoy it. I think at one time the place was probably extremely nice. I noticed its starting to show some wear and more than a couple of items/displays were broken or non functioning. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful and overall the place was clean so I cant deduct too much from the rating. If youre looking for something to keep your kid(s) busy for an hour or two itd be worth visiting.

This is a nice little place. It is not giant, but big enough to keep kids entertained. It also allows parents to relax a bit. There is a decent amount of seating, and your child can visit multiple exhibits and still be in full view. A very nice place to spend an afternoon.

Review №32

So many of the attractions were not working. It was very disappointing for my grand children. It would have been an amazing experience had everything been working. A Childrens Museum without having to go in to New Orleans!! Paying to get in with at least four of the attractions not working. I should have been informed at the payment counter and been able to make a decision as to whether or not we wanted to go in. They are old enough to express their disappoint. Which they did and were ready to leave in a short period of time.

Review №33

Great childrens museum. Its been a long time since going to the one in nola, but this one didnt disappoint. Close to home and great for the kids on a hot, rainy day. Thinking about a annual family membership. Daily price is a little over $8 for adults and same for all kids over 24 months. Free for those ankle biters under 24 months. Highly recommended.

I must say that they did a WONDERFUL job for my daughter’s birthday party today. (November 24th. They was very nice & polite & they also helped me & my family set up the party & we was done on time for the party to start because the party was for an hour which was not bad at all. My daughter had a blast here & I wouldn’t mind having her another birthday party here again. Everything went smooth & less stressful. if it wasn’t for the helpers that was in the room with me helping with the food & decoreation. I don’t know if I would’ve been done in time lol but Thank y’all so much!! My daughter enjoyed herself.

There are some cool things to play with here, but its more of a play center than a dicovery center as there are only like 3 exhibits. A great place to go to get out of the house and keep cool!

Loved this place for kids, much better than the NOLA childrens museum. The staff was friendly and the play areas were clean. I would advise calling ahead because field trips can over crowd things.

There was alot to do with my toddler children! They especially loved the bubble construction, train and hot air balloon exhibit. There was also a some things for older children to do. My nephew loved the dunking and bag toss exhibit. We stayed for 2 hrs and there were still a couple areas we didnt get to. Great family experience and would definitively visit again.

Best place for kids under 12. All kind of activities for all ages. They have excellent employees. Will play with your kids. They also have an art room for kids to draw and make crafty things. Take your kids here at least once. They do special things for kids every weekend.I love it. I bring my kids here all the time. Also there is a park close by.

The Museum staff, in particular the Floor Manager exhibited racist attitudes toward the minority students and parents from O. W. Dillon Leadership Academy! We wont be back and will spread the word to our other schools in the parish.Met today with Mrs. Schwebel and Mr. Philpot concerning the field trip experienced by my students and staff. Their administration was very professional and proactive. We were able to reach a common accord on corrective actions to insure that our experience was an isolated incident and not any reflection on the organization and its purpose. I now feel very comfortable in recommending the continued support of the Museum and its mission.
