Hello all
If you're looking for a new fun place to take the little ones, The Great Exploration's Houghton-Wagman Children's Museum is the place to go! I was happy to receive free tickets to go, because I have had my eye on this place to take my granddaughter here for awhile!
Where to start, this place was so awesome. It has so much for your little ones to do! I love that it only has one entrance and one exit that is always manned by an employee. That way you're little one doesn't get out it case you lose track of them. There were so many kids here for my granddaughter to play with! She had a blast!

The place is broken up into lots of small play areas, with a large playcenter in the middle with a slide.
There are lots of table with different kinds of building blocks on them. They have a lot of seating by these. Among the sections we really like was a kid sized Publix grocery store with a checkout! It had lots of play food for them to choose from! Our next favorite area was a hospital with a nurses station, x-ray machine, dolls and stethoscopes, and a large Operation game.

Next we moved onto the farm area with a life sized cow you could milk and a farm with plenty of food! Then onto the sandpit next. This was popular with the kids and this section was crowded.

The last few areas we stopped to explore was the TV station where you could act like a real newscaster behind a news desk, with a monitor you can view yourself on and play computer keyboards. Lastly we stopped by the fire rescue area complete with fire truck and firemen gear!

We stayed for 2 hours, but could of easily stayed for a few more.We really had a great time, and there is so much to do here to keep any kid happily entertained. There were many other areas for us to explore for next time. This would make a great spot to have birthday parties with its abundance of fun and its safe environment. We has so much fun, we looked into buying a yearly membership We will definitely be back, and I highly recommend this place to anyone who has kids! It is located at 1925 4th St. North, St. Pete., right next to Sunken Gardens. Parking was free, Admission was $10 adults and kids. It was well worth it. Maybe I'll see ya there!
