The writers museum has a kids room but there is alot of cool stuff for adults to enjoy. I particularly enjoyed the interactive time line section that could be fun for kids to play with the buttons and lots of neat information for adults.

It's definitely for grown-ups. It has information about most of the well-known and many less-known American writers. We spent an hour, just glancing at the displays, but I can easily see myself going back and spending 3-4 hours there. For me, it was a lovely surprise.

Mostly for adults, but there are some kids activities. You can spent half a day easy, if you're really reviewing the displays.

It is for all ages and can take as much or as little time as you want to give.

I enjoyed it a lot as an adult and it took me 2 hours ,there are a lot of interactive displays also suitable for kids, it worths the visit!

No. It is great for adults too. I'd say 75% for adults 25% for kids.

I don't have kids and I really enjoyed it. It is really interactive with things that are interesting for both adults and kids. I spent an hour and a half, but could easily have spent longer there.

Both kids and adults will enjoy the exhibits, information and hands on opportunity at the museum. Only the amount of time you care to spend at each exhibit will dictate your length of stay. It's a good experience.

Really good for adults and kids. I spent about 2 hours there, but I think you could get through it faster.

There are a lot of things to learn. We spent over an hour. If delve into to it, you can easily spend 2-3 hours

This place has areas for both adults and kids. If you go through all the exhibits earnestly, try out all the interactive parts, take pictures at the picture-worthy spots, and check out the gift shop, it takes about two to three hours.

No. Has interactive but mostly is a lot of reading of discriptions of writers. When there, had Laura Ingalls Wilder exhibit.

It is designed for both children & adults. It took me about 2 hours. It's interactive & I looked at almost all the pieces.
