Loved this place! Love how its a free childrens museum and lots of hands on activities for the kids. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable of the towns events. They have a small gift shop with lots of cool toys and books for kids at bargain prices. Will definitely be visiting again with my kids when we come back to this town. Great job Farmington!

Great place for kids, it is free but I feel like everyone should donate as the city tried to shut this wonderful facility down last year due to budget concerns. Not every town can boast having a place for kids that is entertaining and educational. Maybe grants could be obtained to help future funding.... Wallace foundation would be a good start .

One of the best kids places in Farmington! My kids always love coming here and we are so thankful for E3! Friendly staff and no fee to get in (although they appreciate donations). Lots of activity stations offered, my boys particularly love the creation station where they get to make stuff out of recycled plastic and card board. Its a great place for kids to learn and have fun!

A little treasure in San Juan County. They have a toddler area that is pretty fun, especially when the weather has you inside. And then they have a ton of other activities, like a little house to play pretend, they have a puppet area, and then various science based activities. Over all just a fun place.

This place is so amazing.The workers are very friendly. Free to get in but its nice to leave a donation. They have great age appropriate areas. My toddler loved the freedom of running around and playing in her age room and looking at all the cool things they had there! :)

We had a great time at the childrens museum! For a small place, they have some really neat displays, and it is very engaging. The one thing I didnt like was that the design of the floor displays made it difficult to see around, and it is easy to lose track of children. This caused anxiety and dampened the excitement of watching my kids explore and learn. However, the staff has done a great job with the place, and we will be recommending the center to others, and hopefully be back soon!

Admission is a suggested donation. Small gift shop with toys, coloring books, and science-themed items. Large soft-play area for kids 5 and under. Play house, magnetic table, shadow room, legos, and some experiment-type things. Hours of fun! Nice, clean bathrooms with both adult and child-size seats attached to the toilets. Grown-ups will probably get bored before the kids. Well definitely be back!

I love this place. The staff here is so friendly and helpful. There is a toddler play area for kids 0-5. Big enough for them to really run around and full of soft equipment for them to jump/play on. They also have craft/activity/science experiment days. I usually take my kids here Wednesdays and Fridays for the toddler activities. My littles can get messy and I dont have to clean it up! I wish it was bigger but I cant complain because its free! They accept donations (and I strongly encourage this if you are able). The kids in Farmington need more indoor places like this, especially during the winter months.

Very fun place for little ones 5 and under. There are also several things to do for an older kid in the museum side. My little boy had a blast. All activities are free to the public. They do accept donations. There is a gift shop with reasonably priced merchandise.

This place is a nice little place to take the kids to play. Its extremely small compared to museums in bigger cities but there are some fun exhibits. My kids always have fun here but its not a place you would stay more than an hour to an hour and a half. The place is well kept and just put in some new exhibits. I recommend this place if your kids havent been and you have a little bit of time to kill.
