Editorial Review for Austin Children's Museum – by Lois M. Rodriguez
In Short
Youngsters (and their parents) enjoy a tactile experience with art, science and the global community. Permanent exhibits include Austin Kiddie Limits, which introduces children to Texas music and serves as stage for year-round live performances. The water-themed Splish teaches kids about marine life before they turn trash into art at the Creation Station. Brainteasers offer problem solving through observation and logical thinking. The Rising Star Ranch focuses on developing the motor and social skills for children under two.
