Explorium Denton Children's Museum

"One of the only free play spaces left in Denton. Like that it's one uniform floor so it's easy to catch sight of your kid. Great range of activities and lots of crafts, toys and physical play areas to keep kids busy. Sweet spot ages are around 3-6 in terms of being able to engage with all the activities but they have a great area for babies as well. Weekends are pretty busy. Great for birthdays as well."

"I’ve taken my two kids twice. The first time was awesome because there were only a few kids there and the parents that were there were actively monitoring their own kids. I went again thinking I might be interested in purchasing a membership for the year, but I won’t be doing that. This time, there were a ton of kids there and very little parent monitoring. There were kids going up the slide while other kids were trying to go down, big kids (8-12 yr olds) running at full speed while younger (babies-toddlers) were trying to play, and kids pushing other kids to get to activities. I understand that the employees can only do so much, but if parents can’t watch their own kids to police their behavior and kids’ behavior are causing safety issues, they need to be asked to leave. We left after 15 minutes after spending $20 for admission. If we go back, we will wait until a weekday afternoon when older kids aren’t there."

"I cannot say enough good things. We purchased a year membership about one month ago and we have come here at least once a week sometimes twice a week since then. The craft stations that rotate out new crafts each week and the static learning stations have all been a delight for my girls. But my highest praise goes to the staff. They have been most engaging and genuinely interested in teaching and playing with my girls. Though it’s not necessary for them to do so they devote one on one time with each of my girls on almost every occasion I’m there. They remember their names and make them feel seen and special. This to me, is above and beyond what their job calls for. I love this place and so do my girls!"

"Amazing place and perfect for kids’ birthday parties!! Wish we had a bit more time to set up/tear down but we go a little overboard with our decorations so that’s totally on us!! Our kiddos have birthdays three days apart so this was a perfect place to have both 4 year olds and babies together but separated safely for all to enjoy!! We had a blast and will definitely be back!!"

"Very cute little place. We stopped in on our way from Davis OK to Waco TX so the kids could stretch their legs. It was perfect for them. The 12 year old got bored after 30 mins but the 3 and 8 year old didn't want to leave. It's all open but small enough you can sit and relax and they can play within eyes view. Perfect stop! And only $5/person! Score!"
