Reviews of Cheshire Children's Museum (Museum)

Nat

Wasn’t awful, but it was nothing special.

Terri Ellis

Amazing.. Wish we had of found this place sooner. So much to do.. We were so impressed. We got a membership and booked a party

Shauna Myers

Amazing indoor play space for kids of all ages!

Cassie Beth

Same cost as places much bigger with more to do. My toddler was easily bored as everything was aimed at 3+ it seemed. The "toddler" room was just a bunch of used toys. Most childrens places weve been have much more climbing/interactive gear. I can see older children having fun but Unfortunately was a waste for us.

Clyde Sandford

Great place for children of all ages to come and learn about all kinds of different of industries. Including radio, farming, construction, and electrical. My kids loved it. Well worth the price (check with library passes for reduced price).

Aj Britton

My son LOVES this place. So much to do, explore, and learn. So nice to have this so close so there's always something to do nearby especially in the winter.

Mike Shirley

Great place, lots of stuff to do with your kids.

Kelly Provost

We love it! It's developmentally appropriate for children ages 1-7+ Is hands on, educational, and just fun! My 2 year old had a blast and I love paying with her ♡

Desiray Skillens

This is a wonderful place for children to explore all different experiences from pretending to be postal workers, grocery shopping, camping, railroad and even mechanical. From my littlest one year old to my nine year old. They cant get enough of this place.

Chris D

Not bad daughter had a lot of fun good price just wish the worker wasn’t walking around with her bright orange bra showing with her open back shirt .

Katie Bazaz

Great place, I have 3 kids 5 and under and we had a blast. Def will be back

Carl Holmes

Amazing place for younger children

Susan Cashman

Perfect place for your busy children.Educational fun

Jared Clark

Great for 2-5 year olds. Best when not busy.

Jonathan Westland

Over priced. Not much to do for the kiddos...they got bored in about 20 minutes time.

Debra Hirbour

Great place for kids! Many different areas that kids can explore.

joan wamsley

The kids had a ball, hey I had a ball

Ashley W

Best museum ive been to in years. It has everything your toddler is inspired by here! Its so creative. I feel that over the age of 8 might be a little boring but my 3 year opd loves it here and its super cheap!

Regan S

Good place to engage children in activities

Julie Whitmore

We came on a very busy day and although there were a few unruly kids (old enough to know their behavior was inappropriate), our kids enjoyed their day. Lots of distinct tasks to perform like sorting recycling or operating a child-size excavator and pretend fun from veterinarian work to fishing. We will likely return, but it's not a place we visit often. Also seems like age might be limited to under 7 or 8, depending on child's maturity and developmental skills.

Tiffany Powell

Lots of fun for the kids.

Ben Healy

Great place to bring little kids. My daughter loves all the different displays they have and the staff is very friendly.

Jamie Breen

The place is small, way over priced for what they have to offer, kids were running around being rude to other kids, receptionist was rude...All they had for entertainment was stuff you could do at home....I'm all set with ever paying $24 for my family to come here again and we even had half price off coupons for us to get in...

Marcus Stuart - Vannini

They've packed a lot into this space exhibit-wise. Great for younger kids.

Ruthlyn Richards

A great place for kids it's like the Please Touch Museum in Philly.

Teresa R

Spent over 2 hours. Kids age 4 and 7 had fun

Mallory Horn

What an amazing place!! My daughter and I had so much fun!!

Becky Brewer

Super fun for little kids! Thoughtfully arranged, we were there 2 hours before we knew it. The kids had so much fun (2 and 4 years old). Would definitely go back.

Jason Miles

Nice place to let young kids let loose. Good for children 2 to 7.

Ari Fellman

Great for its cost. Calling it a museum is a stretch, more like an indoor activity center.

MM &BabyK

My son loves it here! Tons for him to do, anytime we come he gets a huge smile on his face! Just got a memebership, worth the money in my opinion. Staff is always very nice.

Ray Rant

Like their homemade ice cream, worth the visit.

ty brown

It's such a great place. My little man is 2. He has endless fun and really does learn while there. 10/10

Gmail Tom Westheimer

Fun for all

Tara Rosenlund

Kinda expensive but I guess it is what it is. It was packed when we went on a Saturday.

Terry Roddy

Good value. Kids loved it, didn't want to leave.

Simrace LiveTV

The kids loved it. We will be back.

Yvonne Aulner

Its cool for when its snowing.

Sharon Harper

This is a great place for children to play and learn at the same time.

Oliver Strube

My kids have always enjoyed coming here.

megan delanoy

The most annoying thing about this place was the staff. Or lack of. The two desk girls were staring at their phones the entire time! It was utterly obnoxious and unprofessional.

Brian Saxby

It's been awhile since I've been but last time I was there they always had hand's on exhibits

Sean Radcliffe

Great fun for kids from 3 to 7 years old. Perfect for a rainy day.

Kala Clark

What a wonderful time with my 6yr old. Perfect cold wether activity.

G C

Love to visit here with my two kids who will be 2 & 7 this year. The space is small enough that my oldest can venture off on his own to play independently and make friends, too. It's also well organized and fits MANY "stations" with activities for children and adults to participate, or benches throughout to sit & watch, if that's your thing. There is a designated seperate area for little ones to play that are under 3yrs. This is our third year buying a membership, highly recommend!

StarLei Greenwood

Lots of toys for kids but they make you pay for each adult to go and just WATCH your child play. There is nothing for adults to do there other than watch your child so charging $7 per adult sounds a little ridiculous to me. The staff were also all very rude to us. Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Stinks there’s nothing else in Keene for the kiddos!

mckenzie girard

Awesome place would be great for age 10 and under. You can use your EBT even out of state!! Great price and place for a day trip.

Ashlee Crosby

Such a treasure to have in town. Our favorite place to take the kiddos for inside activities

Jane Hood

So many different exhibits and activities for small and elementary school kids in a safe and clean space. The staff are amazing and they consistently add and refresh exhibits.

Lloyd McKenzie

It is a fun place for the whole family.

Kelly Freiwald

Great place for toddlers!

Meg Lashof-Sullivan

Not really a museum, more of a playspace for kids. There is a lot to do and my daughter had a ton of fun. I'd recommend for toddler through maybe 7-8.

Laura Vigue

Excellent place to play (kids and adults), lots of ideas for role playing: dentist, pediatrician, restaurant, farmer, camping, fishing, train conductor, and so many more! Only one entrance/exit near the front desk (there is a second exit for emergencies), helpful and attentive staff, restrooms close by only accessible by passcode, and an enclosed area for kids under 3. Hours are great and prices are very reasonable, and there is discounted admission for those who receive SNAP benefits. This place is amazing, and I take my boys, ages 3 and 7, frequently!

Melissa Benik

Great place for kids

TINA GEE

Kids enjoyed. Good place to entertain littles for an hour or two.

Nicholas Owen

Had some free passes for the museum really enjoyed it with the kids.

Amanda King

A great place for young children to play and have a good time

Safe Movers of New England

Fantastic

Deidre Rivard

Your establishment seemed very friendly. I was here today for a birthday party. Kids really seemed to enjoy it.

Jim M.

Lots of fun for the kids.

Doug Howell

We had a blast with our grandchild

Sandra Stomper

What a time my granddaughters had here! You will be quite impressed at the fun they will have and even find yourself wanting to engage! You can also see how well the place is thought of by others expressions. From checking your oil or buy groceries to add into the little cart, to the register...to pretend how to garden or milk a cow! You will find many neat things and hours of fun just being a child. Rainy day...perfect play!

Sara L

Very cool place! Especially since they moved. I wish there were more interactive things for kids to do, especially when it's quiet there. It's easier to use your imagination when there are others to share in it with you. That's why not interactive items would be good for the quiet days. Much much better since moving!

Matt Beier

Great place for younger children to explore

Eric&Jennifer Bone

Wonderful place for a visit w/ toddlers to tikes: sit on toys, slides, a grocery store, a stage, and much more... Imagine, explore, and discover!

Lucas Beardslee

First time going since they moved from the Colonoscopy Mill. It was awesome then and it's even better now. The space is more expansive and they have all the old fun stuff my first child loved in addition to a bunch of new areas which both kids loved. The space is very well thought out and it's great that many of the play areas are sponsored by local businesses (although I'm all good with the Christian School BS). My favorite part was that there are many boxes at each h of the "businesses" so that if your kid wants to play mail person they can go around and visit every area delivering. It's like a little microcosm of a town. Such a great resource to have especially in an area with extreme weather in the winter and summer. Very well thought out and educationally minded play areas with out the overt commercialization and product placement of larger chain children's paly places. Will return. Many times. My kids demand it and I can feel good taking them there.

jonathan perrino

My kids love this place. There are plenty of stations for them to play and pretend at. The staff is very friendly. And there is only one exit so parents can feel at ease knowing their kids can’t escape!

Teamed Onward LLC

Fun

Jeremy Girouard

Definitely needs some updating, but it is very deceiving being called a childrens "museum" , it is much more like a childrens playplace rather than a museum. Although it does have its share of learning activities, it is a great hands on play center!

Kristen Pineault

So cute. The kids always have fun. Very age appropriate exhibits for children. Staff is always polite and friendly.

Aislinn Blackstone

Wouldn't bring kids older than 5 but good for a couple of hours of play for the kids, not much for interactive play with parents

frederick lagerberg

Great people there just great all around.

Jerome Kessler

Grandkids liked it. Needs update and some new attractions.

Danielle Lacroix

My son loves it! Always interesting stations and always clean.

P Broiles

Love this place. So many innovative stations sparking great imaginatuon journies

Donnie Mason

Fun an Alot learning toys

Michele Wheeler

I walk by see different things going on nice

Stephanie Latini

Fantastic place to take the under age 8 crowd. Great play areas with different sensory and pretend play items. Good prices. Not overstimulating like a Chuck E. Cheese. My daughters (6 and 4) adore it.

Susan Pease

Perfect place to bring child to explore and play she's up to 6th grade

Veronica Artavia

Very nice place for kids

Jesse Lazar

There is a lot to do and see here.

Steven Howard

I can't get the grandkids to leave without tears. Great fun for toddlers to 9 year olds.

Jeremy LaPlante

This is a great place! I originally purchased an annual membership thinking I would mostly use it on rainy days and in the winter months. Instead I bring my kids age 4 and 2 almost once a week. Our average visit lasts 1-2 hours. Even in the summer when temperatures go above 90 it becomes a great air-conditioned activity. Outside agencies/businesses occasionally hold special events. For example the humane society has brought in an animal or the local music business held a hands on "instrument petting zoo". The cost is more than reasonable per visit and you will quickly find that buying an annual membership is the way to go.

K Chamberlin

I love taking the kids here. They are entertained for hours and never want to leave.

James Boyd

I think it's a rip that PARENTS have to pay for them self

Kate Peterman

We stopped in to check this museum out and they let is take a look around. They had quite a few activities here for kids from probably around two and up. Looks like a great place to.spend a rainy day.

random person

Thanks so much for all you did you go back and look how desperate and I will try again today but will try and call me on the list for you and I will try to stop eating a good time with the sunset with me to go with him then and there was watching and your mom is everyone going through the process I will be there for sure to be in my school schedule I can call me anytime you are wrong person to get there and talked a bit about that and prosperous and healthy new snake and your dad are doing good luck on my phone but I'm still hideous I don't want you to get a new snake in the results started immediately for you ❤️❤️ last time I was just thinking that was

David Caswell

Brought my grandson he had such a good time. ..good hands on play time

Julie Schoelzel

This place is just wonderful. They have all these different sections for kids to play creatively. They have a pediatricians office, a vet, a construction site, a grocery store, a mining area, a plane and soooo much more. They also host parties and special classes that are included often with the fee. Don't let the outside fool you (a plain strip mall). This place is fantastic.

Stuart Dwight

fun place to take the kids to.

Jessica Blais

This place is so creative and absolutely adorable. I was so impressed with the different "exhibits" -from construction sites, to farms; grocery stores, to dental offices kids get to play pretend in each. So cool!

Heather F

Loved it

Andrei Banari

great place for kids to play

Heather Lapointe

Great place for kids 11 and under. Good family fun!
