San Antonio's children's museum offers a terrific, creative introduction to the city for the pint-sized and grown-up alike. San Antonio history, population, and geography are all explored through such features as a miniature River Walk, a multicultural grocery store, a bank where kids can use their own ATM, and even a miniature dentist's office (more fun than you'd imagine). Activities range... more

Went there the summer of 2007 as something to do for our then 6 year old daughter. She LOVED it! She had been patient with us during our trip down the River Walk so we wanted to find something special for her to do. Luckily we had waited till the end of our trip and didn't have more plans, as our daughter didn't want to leave

This place was the best money we spent in San Antonio, our two boys, 3 years and 4 years, had a blast. They were playing for hours and didn't want to leave, we all loved it!
