Our children loved it. The maker room was great and staff are very kind. Not as big as I was expecting, but still very fun. Food was even more overpriced than what I was expecting, but it was nice that they had the exact "healthy" option my 4yo is used to. We spent about 4 hours there and he wanted to stay longer.
Used my Access card and you had to made a reservation before coming because of the pandemic restrictions. I felt safe. We had fun.
Our six-year-old daughter seemed to have gotten bored quickly in this museum. I think she just may have passed the age of enjoying this type of museum. So I ll say this The Please Touch Museum is terrific for ages five and under.
Had so much fun. My sons 3 and he loved it and there s parking on the street if you don t want to pay 16$ for parking. Also they were super easy with changing the day I reserved our tickets for
A nice place for young kids, with plenty of activities. 2 floors of fun, and as the name says, the kids can touch everything. Good place to let them burn off some energy. Everything is indoors, so you never have to worry about the weather. The age for the activities was spread out, so there is something for everyone. I do wish they had something a bit more interactive. Overall a fun few hours
Wonderful place for visually impaired individuals. My son chose the museum for his birthday this year and had an amazing time.
I also appreciate that they provide wheelchairs to those that need them. I had knee surgery recently and was on crutches. The wheelchair helped me keep up with my son and enjoy the experience with him.
My almost 2 year old had the best time. My only disappointment is that we haven't been going for the past 6 months. It's much bigger than I expected. My son loved the Septa bus the most.
The museum is so much fun. My family had a great time. My son has autism and even with a transition meltdown had a great time. The staff was so understanding and engaging. The exhibits are perfectly designed to bring out the kid in us all.
Kids had lots of fun and didn t want to leave! It was out first time, and I went with two of my friends and their kids. Place was nice, staff are friendly. I wish the staff was present at some locations in the museum. I know its covid and all and they don t want the place to be crowded, and it wasn t, but just for safety reasons. I d definitely recommend this place to everyone with kids. It s different, interactive, and kids loved it
This place is great for little kids (5 and under) it's not terribly big and could be a little cheaper especially for the adults. However it's great for growing minds and has some really cute areas of play for toddlers. I juat feel like 22 for the adults is a bit excessive. They could also use a better food selection in their cafe. Also anyone over 2 is required to wear a mask!
Please Touch Museum: A Celebration of Imagination for Children and Families
Welcome to Please Touch Museum, a unique and interactive museum that celebrates imagination and creativity for children and families. Located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Please Touch Museum is a place where kids can learn through play, exploration, and discovery.
At Please Touch Museum, we believe that learning should be fun. That's why we have created an environment where children can touch, feel, explore and interact with exhibits that are designed to stimulate their curiosity. Our exhibits are carefully crafted to provide hands-on experiences that encourage learning through play.
Our museum is designed for children aged 7 years old or younger. We have over 60 interactive exhibits spread across six themed areas: Roadside Attractions; River Adventures; Wonderland; Flight Fantasy; City Capers; and Centennial Exploration. Each exhibit is designed to engage children in different ways - from building structures with blocks to exploring the human body.
One of our most popular exhibits is Roadside Attractions which features a life-sized replica of a SEPTA bus where kids can climb aboard and pretend they're driving around the city! Another favorite exhibit is River Adventures which allows kids to explore the Delaware River watershed by navigating boats through locks or fishing off the pier.
In addition to our physical museum space, we also offer online resources such as virtual tours of our exhibits as well as educational activities that parents can do at home with their children. Our website also features information about upcoming events such as storytimes or special exhibitions.
At Please Touch Museum, we believe in making learning accessible for all families regardless of their financial situation. That's why we offer discounted admission rates on certain days throughout the year as well as free admission on select holidays like Martin Luther King Jr Day or Memorial Day.
We also offer memberships which provide unlimited access to the museum all year round along with other benefits like discounts on birthday parties or purchases at our gift shop.
Overall, Please Touch Museum provides an enriching experience for both children and adults alike by fostering creativity, imagination and curiosity through interactive play-based learning opportunities both in-person at our physical location in Philadelphia or online via virtual tours or educational resources available on our website.
