The Discovery Museum

  Love this Acton museum and this experience!  We go periodically and it's a great little place for toddlers.  There are two buildings here, one for younger kids (think 0-5ish) and one for older kids- Kindergartenish and up.  The younger children's building is in an old Victorian house, with each room being theme based.   From the train room, to water tables, an interactive "restaurant," kids are fully engaged in the hands on exhibits.  The outdoor space is great too, a sandbox, tricycle riding area, and a few picnic tables throughout.
The staff are very laid back about eating on the grounds and another great facet is they don't try to sell you anything- food, drinks, gifts... once you pay admission you're home free.
They're open 6 days a week, closed on Mondays, with a variety of events offered in the evenings and on weekends.


The museum is located at 177 Main St, Acton, MA, convenient to Route 2.
