Editor's Take

A better fit for curious makers and imaginative kids than for children who mainly want to climb, bounce, and crash around.

About the Venue

Buell Children's Museum is a two-level hands-on children's museum inside the Sangre de Cristo Arts and Conference Center in downtown Pueblo. Instead of bounce-style play, families will find interactive STEAM stations, art-making areas, a pretend-play village, and rotating exhibits designed for exploring together. It is an especially strong fit for toddlers through early elementary ages, families who prefer creative indoor play, and parents who want a slower-paced outing than a trampoline park.
