First time. Spent entire afternoon here our kid of 5 won’t get bored. Enjoy great view of GGB right in front. Be sure to wear warm cloth because it can be windy and cool here even in summer. Parking is free and easy. Wish we’d have known this place earlier.

Fun place for the toddler set up to about 7-8 years old. There are several areas that the kiddos will enjoy, my daughters favorite being the full size boat they can play on. Great views of Golden Gate Bridge in the background!

Even though we went close to Christmas and during a rainy day it was a blast. The kids had a great time as did I. Tons of things to do no matter the age and a full day event

I've been here twice with my child. He had a really good day here. It was good for my child to have new experiences. And there were many things to enjoy. I'm planning to go here with my child next year. And I would like to recommend it to families with children traveling to San Francisco.

How much are tickets as of match '21?

Pam Cruz | Aug 18, 2021
Jay kay Kay jass | Aug 18, 2021

If your low income and can provide proof in some way it's a dollar. If u can show an ebt card it's a dollar. Regular priced tickets are $25-30 and under the age of 2 is free amd no mask required. This museum is defintly geared to 7 year old children and under. And open minded adults that like to get on a little kid level. Me, dad and kids all had fun except my 15 year old who was bored out of his mind and hating life there.

Yes, good eye! As part of our Halloween festival, Goblin Jamboree, we had a "Slime Banquet" program where children played with slime and different spooky props, including creepy crawlers.

Sprinkling yes. It is still very much enjoyable. Pouring could be somewhat hard to walk from building to building. But if you are dress properly no problem.
