Who ever said you can't have fun while learning? As a child I struggled with math and science, so it is my constant goal to help my toddler son to learn math and science concepts through fun, engaging activities. One of the BEST places that helps me with that goal is the Kidspace Children's Museum in Pasadena, California! With outdoor and indoor hands-on exhibits showing the power of gravity, cause-and-effect, and numerous other science and math games, this kid-friendly environment is a place your family will NEVER want to leave!
They even have a special baby/toddler room that is fully padded with pea pods, blocks, musical instruments and regular music singing times that parents and littles ones can enjoy together.
They also have a cafe with low-priced lunches and snacks, a fun-filled gift shop with all sorts of learning toys, and a private party room that can be reserved for birthdays and other fun events.
**Make sure to bring an extra change of clothes, comfortable shoes and a packed lunch. There's a large picnic area to eat and the kids can run through the jumping fountains!
