Editorial notes

What stands out

Better for curious kids who like interactive museum-style discovery than for families specifically hunting for a giant climber or trampoline park.

Good fit

  • Preschoolers and elementary-age kids who like hands-on exhibits
  • Mixed-age family visits
  • Families interested in art, science, and STEAM programming
  • Lower-cost indoor outings

Consider another option if

  • Kids looking mainly for large soft-play structures
  • Families wanting a café-heavy or all-day lounge setup
  • Visitors seeking a high-adrenaline active-play venue

C.A.T.S. is Riverton's nonprofit children's museum and family play-and-learn space, built around hands-on exploration in art, technology, and science. Instead of a traditional climber-focused indoor playground, it offers a smaller-scale museum-style visit with interactive exhibits, recurring STEAM programming, family memberships, and birthday bookings that work well for curious kids and mixed-age family outings.
