I have taken my kids here for years but each time I visit I notice more and more exhibits broken with no repairs taking place. This is a very nice facility but for the cost you would expect them to upkeep their exhibits and maintain a full working order.

Great space for toddlers! My son enjoys going here very much and we have been plenty of times. Staff have been friendly and other parents are typically friendly as well. I’d recommend, especially if you have a little curious mind on your hands. DCM will give them space to explore safely & engage with various different types of activities. A few of them Beijing basketball, weights, drawing, fixing a car, trains, reading, and various STEM-related activities. It’s worth a visit!

Questions & Answers

Why do you charge parents to enter? Parents aren't playing with exhibits we are paying to just walk in the building. We are bringing our children out to play and support your place of business. You should really consider not charging parents.

I agree. Parents shouldn't be charged when we arent playing. I think you guys make enough money just charging per child.

Is parking and inside handicap friendly?

Sandy Schwartz | Oct 7, 2018
Andrew Janosko | Oct 7, 2018

I admit I am not handicap, and did not specifically notice those accomdations, but the parking area was spacious and when we went we parked in the front row without issue. There was and elevator to get to the second level, and the first level has many ramps. I don't remember an area that was only accessible by stairs. It's really a great place to visit. Similar to Port Discovery (Baltimore) but much cheaper!
