We came to the ‘Musee Pour Enfants’ as a group of parents with kids ranging between the ages of 2 and 3. There was excitement, there were tears but ultimately the kids had a great time and that’s the goal we had in mind for this place. It’s important to have options where you can take your child out during the weekends when the weather is too cold or in this case, the weather being raining and sad. I’d say the age range for this place would be ideally around to 2 to 5. Any younger they may not enjoy it a whole lot and if they are older they’d be better off in places of mayhem such as Funtropolis next door. I strongly recommend coming here with more than 1 kid as they’ll keep themselves busy instead of dragging you from place to place. Overall, I quite enjoyed my experience. While another Unilocaler pointed out that it’s not really a museum, I disagree. After-all, a museum is an exposition to be displayed to public and the variety of different room setups makes it so. And there’s plenty of them! Rooms : — Grocers with a truckload of accessories and food carts. Kids can even pretend to be cashiers! Their first part-time job! Our kids had a blast here. — Vet clinic with plenty of stuffed toys and appropriate setup that made it fun for the kids. — A classroom with children’s desks and chalkboard. Not overly popular but hey, it was neat. — A fast food resto(not a real one but fake food all over the place!). Kids were hoarding the junk food toys. Future Unilocalers in the making. — «The Architect Room» where kids can play with bouncing balls in a variety of architectural structures that makes it intriguing and fun. I enjoyed this room the most. — A construction zone where there’s a construction rig you can use, fake power toys that make noise and fake foam bricks they can build towers and walls with. Kids really enjoyed this place as well as the firetruck across the room. — A discothèque where there’s a stage and lights. Kids can dance and«sing» on the microphone. The Frozen song was playing on a loop, so heaven for some people or like me, a place to void. There were others, like a farm, old gutted police truck and ambulance, an airplane, a NASA shuttle, a cave grotto(scary for kids this age though). All in all, plenty to keep kids happy and busy for some time. We were here for 3 hours. Price-tag is OK though I’d make parents pay less. Would be back.

This is a great place if you are stuck in winter, its freezing outside and you have nothing else to do. They have some cool things to do and props like the real police car and ambulance, but they are a little under-stuff so it tends to get too messy, also for the price you are paying(not cheap) you feel you should get a little more. I also felt it would be nice if in the outside dining area(very small) there would be an option to buy coffee or tea, they do let you bring your own food(or buy and bring in) which is a big plus but if you arrived in public transportation you are stuck without food. I would probably visit again in the winter but as I said only if I am stuck and need to vent my kid
