3 reviews for Cape Cod Children's Museum
I agree that the price is steep for a children's museum. My son is 1.5 years old and was the same rate as adults. That's the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. In regards to the previous comment that there aren't activities planned for adults. My understanding is it is a children's museum. Typically the adult (parent/caregiver) is interacting with the chid.
Out of all of the children's museums I've been to with my son this one is the star. As a preschool teacher by profession I was amazed by the activities provided, the learning centers set-up and the detail to quality early childhood experience.
The centers included:
-a tree house workshop (with tools, cones, truck books)
-an enormous pirate ship (dress up trunk, mast to climb on)
-kitchen/bakery/retaurant/table area (dishes, pretend food, cash registers, shopping carts)
-postal office
-music room
-train table, vehicle table
-huge submarine with port holes, steering wheel, telescope, all types of buttons, screens
-a large play wood train (holds children-engine, 2 cars, caboose)
-a manipulatives area (beads, duplos, puzzles)
-large rowboat
-puppet theatre and puppets
-ramps, magnets (science exploration)
and that is not all. Each center is so well done and engaging. I was so inspired by the ideas here and of course my son had fun.

Fun for my little ones... ages 5 and almost-two.
They had a blast and Mashpee was a little boring for them. It gave them something to do close to the condos.
My 5 yo loved the submarine the best. However, we have been to other Children's Museums and this was 1. overpriced for what it was 2. not really a museum, but an indoor playplace....
Expensive indoor "museum". It cost about $22 for 2 adults and 2 kids 2 and under. There is plenty of stuff to do here, but nothing especially interesting for adults. They have a play restaurant, a ship to climb on, a tree house, an small aquarium with some shells in it. There were also a couple of arts and crafts tables. Overall - I'd rather have skipped this place.
