This is not a museum, you need to purchase tickets in advance. It is also not ideal for families with younger children (under 8). We showed up expecting to walk in and were told it was closed (I think they meant to say full for the day). So the cashier told us we could buy any tour for their ages but if my children didn’t like it, they would not refund. We had heard wonderful things about Dialog in the Dark so purchased tickets for this. When we showed up we were asked to leave as my children were too young and refused a refund because “since you don’t speak Hebrew, it’s not our fault we didn’t understand you”. So 2 visits to the museum and we still didn’t see anything and I was refused a refund. Terrible. Thankfully the rest of Israel has been amazing, but this was a terrible mark on our time here. In the States, when a Children’s museum says “ideal for children 9 and above” there is more flexibility and kind of leaves it up to the parents to decide if their child is going to have fun or not. So it’s ok if an 8 yr old wants to participate. Also there is generally no restriction for certain ages because if a family has children spanding different age groups, it can be a challenge. Here there is no flexibility. The age is the age. So my sense is this is better as an addendum to school groups and not idea for tourist or parents home with their children. We’ve been in Israel for a month and have enjoyed everything else but this business.
