Perfect for toddler/preschool-kindergarten ages, but even the adults had fun. Each level has different activities, including a very large interactive water table (not a bad idea to bring a change of clothes or towel). They have splash jacket things but neither of my kiddos wanted to wear them. The climbing area is great for adventurous kids. The staff were really friendly and interacted with the kids. There is a food area that offers several snack and meal options that was reasonably priced. Overall, admission is a bit pricey, but they do offer a Florida resident discount and packages for families who may visit multiple times a year. The closest parking is the garage next door. We ended up going on a weekend where there was an event in CH park so it was $15 to park. While the museum is 3 levels, there is a large elevator. There's also a place to park strollers on the first floor if you don't want to wait for the elevator. This is a fun place for a few hours, especially when it's raining or weather gets really hot. We go about once a year and the kids seem to enjoy it.

I took my granddaughter to the Glazer Museum for the first time, and she had a blast!! There is so much to see and do; we were there for about 2.5 hours, and we could have easily stayed for at least another 2 hours. Watching her laugh and play and just get lost in her imagination made my heart melt. She lives in Orlando, but I’ll definitely bring her back on her next visit! FYI’s: The parking lot is adjacent to the museum and is $8.50 to park for three hours (I used the Park Mobile app). Florida residents pay $19.99 at the door (you must show ID); the discount is not available online.

Fantastic Experience – A Must-Visit for Families! We had such a great time at Glazer Children’s Museum! My kids had an absolute blast exploring all the exhibits and activities—it’s the kind of place where learning and fun go hand in hand. The staff was wonderful—engaged, friendly, and clearly passionate about creating a great experience for the kids. I’d definitely recommend arriving early—it gets busy fast, and for good reason! It’s a popular spot, and once you’re inside, you’ll see why. Everything is thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity and creativity. A fantastic place to spend the day with your little ones—we’ll absolutely be back!

Wonderful museum. Big John has captivated my son who loves dinosaurs. The first floor has a water ride and the second floor has many different "rooms" from a farm to an old house. It was fun. paid parking $20 per day

Loved this place! Kept the kids busy and occupied all day... They cried not to leave. Definitely the perfect place for kids to have fun and learn at the same time. Very clean, friendly staff, an all around pleasant experience

A great indoor activity for kiddos, especially during the summer! I wish they had some more S.T.E.M related activities, however, everything that was available was very fun. We easily could have been there all day. It's a great option for ages 2-10. There were not a lot of options for kiddos under 2, and I feel that over 10yrs old would get easily bored.

My son had a blast He spent hours here! The fort building with sheets was brilliant. The projector images of sea life in the sand was amazing. The cardboard building was perfect for him. He spent at least an hour making a house. Well worth the money. I think we stayed there for four hours!

It is perfect for a family day, a day off or a bad weather day. There are so many activities for the kids to explore, to learn, to play and to keep them entertained. The one I loved the most and I think my kid did too was the upper floor with the dinosaurs. There is an activity where they color a dinosaur and they get to see it come to live on the screen. Really cool!
