  • 5/5 Guillermo Tell Aveledo C. 4 years ago on Google • 82 reviews
    Come rain or come shine, the Caracas' Museo de los Niños remains a bright spot in the city. There have been important efforts to update some facilities, and yet part of the interactive exhibits have such simple interactivity and deal with such basic principles that they retain their wonder and awe for children. Even in the digital age, they are timeless. Moreover, young parents might find newer attractions: for toddlers and kindergartners, colours and shapes; for kids and pre-teens, space exploration, the fight against drugs and the newly opened paleontology area. The museum's remains as a testimony of the extraordinary vision for childrens' development of Alicia Pietri de Caldera. ....... A full ticket goes for about 3$. The area around the museum can be rough, but the outing is worth it.

  • 3/5 Jesus Enrique Gonzalez J. 7 years ago on Google • 10 reviews
    At one point this used to be a great museum , a place where you could expose kids to science , nature , biology etc with a different and super entertaining approach . But everything is really old and outdated and by the way it looks apparently they haven't invested a single dine in renewing it or at least keeping things working .

  • 5/5 Eduardo V. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Excellent the Museum. It lacks a lot of maintenance and there are several damaged machines. However, the attraction of Terrible Lizards (dinosaurs) is excellent. The guide dominates the subject very well. Good place to take the kids. (Original) Excelente el Museo. Falta mucho mantenimiento y hay varias máquinas dañadas.

  • 3/5 Maria L. 4 years ago on Google

  • 2/5 Leonardo H. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I give it 2 stars at the moment because unfortunately it fell into neglect, it is almost abandoned, very deteriorated, and more than outdated games and equipment. Its splendor, relevance in science and its avant-garde is lost. It is unfortunate that such an important temple for children, as it was for me, is in these conditions. Hopefully you can recover what it was, updating its attractions, and renovating the aesthetics of the building but maintaining the originality as when the idea of ​​this science museum and knowing for children was conceived. (Original) Le doy 2 estrellas en este momento porque lamentablemente cayó en la desidia, esta casi abandonado, muy deteriorado, y mas que desactualizados los juegos y equipos. Su esplendor, relevancia en la ciencia y su vanguardia esta perdida. Es lamentable que un templo tan importante para los niños, como lo fue para mi, este en esas condiciones. Ojala pueda recuperarse lo que fue, actualizando sus atracciones, y renovar la estetica del edificio pero manteniendo la originalidad como cuando fue concebida la idea de este museo de ciencia y saber para los niños.
