Wise Wonders Children’ Museum

I cannot say enough about this adorable establishment. My husband, daughter, and I are visiting from Houston. Prior to arriving here I did my research on kid-​friendly locations to take my daughter while my husband was working. Wise Wonders came up and we put it on our agenda of things to do. We’re so glad we did!
It’s not large at all, but large enough to accommodate many activities for hours of fun. Parents can sit back and relax while their children explore the dinosaur dig (smartly made out of beans instead of messy sand), grocery shop in the grocery store with actual product packaging and fake fruits and vegetables, sorted and stored in bins. Children collect their items in a grocery cart and wheel them to an actual register with a conveyor belt. It was adorable to see the kids lining up with their carts waiting to check out.
There is a huge magnet board with spinning gear magnets that the children can link together and move around, oversized Lego blocks, and a wind tunnel to send self-​made parachutes flying through the air.
These are just a few things to name that make Wise Wonders a place worth visiting.
As I said, the place is small enough where parents can sit comfortably and see their child in every section of play, but you may not sit for long. It’s hard not to dive in and play yourself!
This museum is just starting up, so they have more things to come.
Coming from Houston, were accustomed to the three-​story, manic children’s museum our museum district has to offer. I’ll take the fun and peaceful environment of Wise Wonders any day!
