Valley Museum, Kibbutz Yifat — Attraction in Emek Izrael Regional Council

An excellent experience for both kids and adults. The atmosphere is a seamless blend of kibbutz and museum. The content is clear and extremely well presented. Signage is plentiful, clear, and highly informative, both in Hebrew and in English. The setting is gorgeous; the Emek is invitingly spread out before you as you take advantage of the spacious and beautiful picnic area. The only downside is that the museum closes around 1300 on Saturday. I could definitely have spent more time there. The kids (and I) loved the tractors, but surprisingly the museum tour was perhaps even more appreciated. The staff person was professional, personable, and engaged on multiple levels, keeping both parents and children riveted. My kids had a great time, my wife had a great time, and I had a great time. Well...

Great place for children. If you set up a group you can get a really nice guide to take you around the place and explain stuff. We had Rachel and she was awesome with our 3 year olds. She did with us some things related to the upcoming Hanukkah where we created menoras and prepare doughnuts. Other than that there are real life tractors to climb, smaller toy tractors with pedals to ride, a transparent beehive with actual living bees to look at, a junk yard full of old kitchen appliances that kids can play with, and many different rooms with old stuff that show how people once...

Came here on a saturday- entrance was free and there were very few people. The place is a kid's HEAVEN! My boy (1.5yo) had such a wonderful time playing here for a few hours! The yard is shaded and offers so many things to play with, and there's a cafeteria close by. Also- the museum itself is so beautifully done, you can tell a lot of passion went into creating and curating it. Seriously can't recommend...
