The Houston Fire Museum — Attraction in Houston

A nice little museum. My 5YO had been wanting to go for a while, so I had a day off when it was open, and we went.

She enjoyed the play area, especially the little house, and it amused her for about 45 minutes (may have lasted longer if other kids had been there to play with). The play area has a 2 story play home, a fire pole (with ladder so one can slide down onto VERY padded mats), the hose part of a truck (one can remove and reattach hoses), the cab of a fire truck, and some dress up.

The fire trucks on the lower level were cool and my son enjoyed the children's room. That's pretty much all there was to see on the first floor though, so we didn't see much. It's a bit run down. Some of the Google photos that are posted are much nicer than it looks right now. Could...

Don’t waste your money. this place is extremely small and only has 1-2 interesting things.

The most enjoyable part was when the kids played together for a few in minutes the play area and that is because the host was not in there with us. We could have had a free park day and not spent any money, we would have been better off at the park. We will...
