children's museum of the shoals

For my 2 and 4 year old boys it was an adventurous place. Some of the exhibits didn't seem so elaborate but they loved to play in each place. My children are spoiled and have been many places. They had as much or even more fun here as some of the big expensive attractions on big cities.

Huge catfish through the roof! Also displays of other river information, local industry, power generation. Hands-on activities such as rudimentary carpentry, arts and crafts, even a floor keyboard played by walking on it. Kids love it.

Weary parents traveling with young children can find a respite from the road by taking their children through this museum made just for them. Gardens abound and playgrounds are nearby. A place to let the kids run loose for a bit and wear themselves out.

This is a fun, hands-on, place for younger children. Check out Deibert Park while you're there. My children have spent hours there. It's always a great place to go on a rainy day.

This is a great place to visit. My little one loves it. The staff is very friendly! Highly recommend this museum for families with young children.

My 4 year old LOVES this place! Lots of fun stuff for little ones to do! She asks to go back all of the time! Florence is a very nice area!

really cute place for under 10's. very cool building that draws kids in and fun displays. pleasant way to pass a half hour.

Took the 2 yr. old that I was baby sitting. She had a good time and enjoyed the other youngsters while playing. The teacher gives them a lesson, and a game to get them acquainted. They have many educational toys and displays for them. And also, toys to ride outside for them.
