Atlas Perspective

Editor's Take

The best local choice for families who want imaginative, hands-on indoor play with more variety and a calmer pace than an inflatable park.

About the Venue

Huntington Children's Museum is an indoor exhibit-based play and learning space designed for children roughly ages 1-10. Families will find hands-on areas such as a water table, sand table, kid-size city, stop-motion station, and indoor climbing play. It is a particularly good fit for families who want exploratory museum play instead of bounce-house energy, and it works well for mixed-age sibling visits on rainy or very hot days.
