Hamilton Children's Museum — Local services in Hamilton

First and foremost it's a small one floor but what it has is perfect. We'll maintained with amazing staff. There is something new to do in the event/craft room every day. My son adores the fort biulding room. There is also a toy kitchen room resembling an 1800's cookery sporting tonnes for the kids to do. And since it is right in gage park after the kids are done in there you can head for a nice walk. The entry fee is so low it's hardly a thought ( about 2$ a person ) if these guys got a bigger budget and another house In the same style and made a village of themed kids places like this it would be absolutely amazing! It is more a kids indoor play room than a musem but there is alot of educational things if you look deep ( laminated newspapers and other simular things tell alot...

I remember coming as a kid. I wouldn't call this a museum but rather an imagination station. The fact that you get to visit using your library card is a plus. I had to laugh at how many people let kids roam and we're just focused on their cell phones though. Some parents really utilized their time there to interact with their kids. Today was Family day. I was surprised that they were open. The staff were so super accommodating. There was a games room with popcorn (specifically for today); a pretend kitchen area; Fisherman's wharf area as well as an outdoors themed room. We had a great time. My nephew has already talked about bringing is best friend next time. Lots of events coming up. What a great place to have...

Great place for young children who love to build and explore. Lots of props & supplies for construction, pretend play, and role-playing. Our 3 year old son had a great time there in late December 2017. BE AWARE: On busy days, the staff will ask you to limit your visit to 1 hour, since the old building has a limited capacity according to safe occupancy guidelines. I would recommend that you call ahead to see how busy it is. Go on a "slow day" - try to give yourself and your child lots of time to play together & enjoy the museum. Best suited for kids aged 2 to 10. Older children may find it childish and would quickly lose interest. NOTE: There is a small charge $ for admission. Check website or call ahead...
