5 and 2 yr old favorite places. Always declare, "best day ever". Make a grocery list for dinner to enhance play time. And TALK to the staff. They're smart, great with kids and enhance every trip.
Fort Worth Stock Show & RodeoSeptember 29, 2011Also a part of our "Moo-seum Experience," the FWMSH is an interactive venue that includes dinosaur bones, 4D theater, kids activites and Omni IMAX theater. Admission included with FWSSR grounds pass.
David PittsAugust 15, 2014The exhibits are great, and don't miss the omni theater. Makes me feel like a kid again!
Ami H.October 5An ASTC reciprocal admission museum - Check out the new display of memorabilia from Forth Worths legendary Leonards Department Store
Used to be good. Now it's more about infotainment and the new expansion is a lot of wasted space. Since 2009 have only been a handful of times. The museum preschool thankfully is intact. That's great.
Eddie V's Prime SeafoodMay 7, 2013There are free Star Parties every month featuring telescopes and Noble Planetarium staffers to help navigate you through the night sky. It’s stellar!
If you live in the area - you must become a member. We have more than gotten our money's worth. Perfect for 100 degree weather and cold rainy weather too.
Jonathon RayAugust 31, 2011You learn stuff here, but you have a great deal of fun while doing so... If you are worried of looking nerdy to your date, this local shouldn't be one of your concerns.
Robby GordonNovember 14, 2014Museum is much different than when I was a kid. Seemed like they had more exhibits the . My daughter loves the children's area. She's worn out when we leave.- Be sure to talk with the docents and curators. They're great and really enhance the experience for kids.
Jason SpoonerApril 28, 2012I loved this museum a lot more before they renovated it. There's not nearly as much to see or do now and it's way more expensive.
Terry OlaesJune 22, 2010The DaVinci traveling exhibit is very interesting. This museum has a ton of things for kids, young and old, to do. My 15 yr old daughter had almost as much fun as my 20 month old daughter did.
Christopher LenziniSeptember 2, 2014Make sure you check out a movie at the Omni theatre while you're here!- Visit the Dino Labs, the planetarium, and the Energy Blast 4D
Access to the waterpark area through the children's museum area only. There is an age limit unless you are accompanying a child.
AyeAugust 27, 2012if we lived in Dallas/FW area, I'd get membership here. So many activities for kids.

Kaila ScalfAugust 18, 2015When buying tickets, I was told "Most exhibits are geared toward children". What I should've been told is that it is literally a children's museum. Wasted $30.
Tracy Vaughn SchultzMay 17, 2014The museum was more interesting, educational, had more exhibits and sections, AND CHEAPER before the 20.00 admission prices paid for the renovations. Very disappointed.
DoraJuly 21, 2010Families can pull up their sleeves and dig for dinosaur bones in the “DinoDig” exhibit. Powered by ParentsConnect.com
Mike MitchellOctober 15, 2011Check out the huge section of steel beam from the World Trade Center. Very moving!
stevan grimesJune 19, 2010A great way to entertain the kids and educate too. 3 Museums across the street and ample parking.
- In the Energy Blast section, there is a 10 minute 4D ride that you must try! it is excellent
Go to the traveling exhibits. Those are always the coolest. Traveling exhibits are the ones that are not permanent.
They have really improved the seating area for parents! Way to go!
Kristi SartorJuly 18, 2012Don't get a salad in the cafe they use old salad - leaves you hungry. The kids meals are overpriced and not that much food. Too many daycare field trips - they should try to limit the number of kids.
Katherine GleasonMarch 26, 2014Be prepared to wait forever to get in if you aren't a member. Least efficient admissions line ever.
Lord Duke the BaronFebruary 3, 2010Look at the bricks with names on them. One says Viva Las Vegas on it. That one is my family's brick.

"Great place to see 12 frontier cabins. Docents at most cabins and very knowledgeable. There almost two hours to see everything. Nice and shady as a lot of trees and paths between cabins are very nice."
