Nothing but good things to say about this place. My first time here and very impressed. So much to see, my son loved it as did I. Drove from connecticut to check it out and definitely worth the drive.

This place manages to take something thats often presented as dry, with text and no visuals, and makes it fun for people of any age. The cars, the recreated storefronts, the different artifacts. Well worth a visit.

This was a very cool museum because I love cars and motorcycles and Springfield is the birthplace of the Indian motorcycle! Also, many people do not realize that Springfield MA is the birthplace of Friendlys Ice Cream, Brighams, Colombia bicycle, a hot bed of anti-slavery sentiment before the civil war, Peerlesa hand cuffs, Smith & Wesson gin manufacturers, and a whole lot more! This was a great museum to visit and its not too big to get done in under an hour or two.

We got to visit during the Toytopia extravaganza which was a blast from the past. Kids could easily spend hours in there playing with the games.

It was a very nice and educational experience. I never knew Massachusetts held this much history within just the state itself. It has been an amazing experienc, Ill without a doubt, never forget this day.

Lots to see, we loved the Dr. Seuss and Toy museums, but the History and Toy museums were too dusty for my asthma and allergies.
