    This is a privately owned museum that features different themes. It’s worth 250.00 per adult. While any kid would be happy to tinker along its many displays, it feels that it was stuck in time and has seen its glory days. We hope they get an upgrade.

    This is a great place to visit with your little ones because they’ll get to learn so many things about the culture and traditions of the Philippines. Very educational and clean place.

    We went to Museo Pambata for our son's 5th birthday. Our entrance fee were waived because of the on-going Teacher's Month promo (husband is a teacher). The museo is child-friendly with several areas for the kids to enjoy, explore, and interact. The place is fully airconditioned, too! 😊 My son enjoyed our visit and he is bugging us to bring him there again. 😊

    Price: 300Php at the time of writing (Adults and Children) Summary: Cleanliness and ambiance 7/10 Installation Quality and Safety Factor 6/10 Staff and Service 6/10 Price 6/10 The location is a brisk walk to Rizal Park if you are near the area. I first visited this Museum when i was in gradeschool and remembered that there’s an exhibit at the 2nd floor. Currently, that area is already closed. There’s a washroom inside and the surroundings of the museum (inside) are relatively clean. There’s an area for workshops and works of children are displayed. Inexorably, outside the Museum, there’s a lot of beggars, can’t say whether there are pickpockets, so just be on your guard when visiting. They have a playground and garden. Most of the interactive exhibit is not working, no sound, no lights. There are real musical intruments (which is good to be part of the exhibit), however the way it was installed is not secured and it dropped while one of us are playing with it. The staff are friendly during admission, but there were no special briefing before going inside, they will just tell you what time they will close. Some staffs are also there to volunteer to take your photos. We went during Manila Day(Holiday), the admission is free for Manila residents, that explains why there’s quiet a crowd when we went. I believe that there’s a souvenir shop but wasn’t able to go there or we thought that it was closed. I believe that IF the price is cheaper, it will be worth it —- because most of the exhibits are not working or turned off when we visited. But in terms of content, overall there’s good amountbof information on the exhibits and the concept is there.

    Great place for children and kids at heart, helps children learn lots of educational and interactive things. Children may use their senses, learn various concepts at their own likings. It develops their minds and inspires them to learn and create wonderful things.

    I went with my daughter and my in-law, all of us had fun. My in-law and myself even read children's books in the library. I wouldn't say it's ur typical museum, nonetheless it's very informative. And the AC worked! I wish they would replicate this on major cities outside Manila. A lot of children will benefit from it.

    Gosh, the memories of my childhood field trip. I think I was grade 2 at that time that we had gone here for one of the stops of our field trip. I was with my mom that time. Had a great time, one of my fav places are the one with little stores and products.Brought back so many nice memories, from our trip back then. Would recommend to families, who maybe wants some more facts about the philippines.

    I visited the place before once when I was a kid and up until today it is one of my most cherished memory. playing Tindera at the market place, dressing up as a news anchor, the mirror magic that would make you look tall or small or even floating. I love this place and I plan to visit again this time with my nephews and niece.

    (Translated by Google) I love this place. I will definitely come back. I pray that more kids will see the beauty of our nation. As the song goes, "in the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter." Youth is the hope of our people, may they see the history of our country. May many children visit it. (Original) I love this place. Babalikan ko talaga. I pray that more kids will see the beauty of our nation. As the song goes, "in the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter." Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng ating bayan, nawa sa makita nila ang kasaysayan ng ating bansa. Nawa maraming bata pa ang bumisita dito.

    It was a great thing that I experience this place when I was a kid. It's been a long time since I came here when I was in elementary. I can't remember all what happened but one thing is for sure, I can still remember having fun in this place. It's a fun place and also a very educational place for children. :)

    It was nice to have interactive arts & crafts activities in each station.. My kids had fun the most at the outdoor playground (of course!) and the tropical forest/ katutubong kultura area. Great for small group tours! :)
