Admission
The cost to play for an hour and a half at Play Street Museum is $14 for kids ages 1-8 years old. Siblings younger or older are free if accompanying paying child. You can book your playtime by reservation online, or take your chances as a walk-in (but there are no guarantees that there will be room for you if you try that option). There are 5 different play time slots per day, with a half hour break in between play times where they clean the whole place. You can also choose to get a 5 visit pass and save 15%.

Montessori-Inspired Play Station
A Montessori-lover’s dream come true! There’s a whole open-ended play station that’s perfect for babies and toddlers.
Dinosaurs
Kids who love dinos will love to play over in this area. They even have jumbo blocks for building your own dinosaur!
Train Table
The most epic train table sits right in the middle of the play area. My oldest son would have LOVED this when he was a toddler. Trains were his favorite.
Imaginative Play
There are many little play stations inside to spark imaginative play, such as a doctor’s office, a vet clinic, a grocery store, houses, a fire station, and a sweet shop. Perhaps the most exciting of all is the garbage truck that lets kids sort the trash into slots and then crank the wheel and the trash all comes back out.
