4 stories of fun for the kids and such a great value too!The kids can stay for hours! You can't purchase any food or drinks there so you need to leave it in the car and come back to get it, or take a back pack with you. There is an eating area in the basement. Too bad they didn't have anything to purchase!

A small museum in the Cascade Mall. Lot's of good activities for young kids. I spent a couple hours with my little boy while my wife is doing her shopping. The staff even offered a free parent swap so that we can take turns shopping without the need to purchase another admission.

I scouted some places for my kids to keep busy while on vacation. This was an amazing place, especially for the price. My kids were so interestingly busy and enjoying all the exhibits. The have a semi truck that kids can go into and a real boat they can go aboard and explore. They have a stage and play, a fishing pond with magnetic fishes and a area gated for toddlers. There is a music room with different instruments and a painting area with easels and crafts. They also get circle time and a snack. So much more!!! The interesting part was the location....in a mall!?!?I wish we had a place like this back home. It was a great adventure.

The museum has grown and developed due to incredible leadership, strong determined board of director and an Executive Director with vision and talent. Must See Often.

A great place for kids. I think this place moved into the Cascade mall. It used to be in Mt. Vernon. Haven't been there since the move. Used to have a Mac cab.

We have taken our grandchildren here for several years. They enjoy playing with quite a variety of items. It is reasonably priced and keeps them occupied for a couple of hours.

I gave this museum 4 stars only because it's not quite a great as the children's museum in Everett. However . . . my grandchildren have enjoyed this museum long past the time I thought they would lose interest. I was there most recently with a 2 1/2 year old, and I would recommend breaking for lunch and then returning to the museum for a bit more in the afternoon. Your admission is good all day. Hint: visit the craft/painting room at the back FIRST, allowing time for your child's art work to dry before you take it to the car!

It was Awesome! My friends mom and little brother took me and my sister and we all had a great time. We especially liked the fishing thing and the one where it says newtons 3rd theory

In case anyone isn't aware, it rains in the northwest. This is a great investment for any grandparent to make. All of our grandchildren were included on the membership, and adults don't pay. Lots to do. I guess we should renew the membership.

We've never before come across a Children's Museum at a Mall. What a good idea!! It's a pretty small place but packed full from wall to wall of things for kids to see and do. I have a 1 year old and a 7 year old and they both had so much fun! We usually spend 2-3 hours there. The staff is very, very friendly. Cheap price, little gift shop as you enter/leave. They were breastfeeding friendly as well. They had a few little areas you could sit and feed a baby and no one seemed to mind at all. Just a gem of a place and completely unexpected.

We stopped in here to break up a car drive for our two young kids on the way home. After spending 2 hours there we had to go and left with the kids wanting more. Both the 4 year old and the 1.5 year had a blast playing with a variety of things in this fun little place. It is a smaller place, but loaded with a lot of "nice touches". Everything from a fish tank that has a couple of turtles, to small indoor sandbox and a great little craft area. It has everything young kids could want. I think any kid under 8 would love this place and be entertained for at least 2-3 hours.
