Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum - Children's museum in Winchester - 19 W Cork St, USA

I'm thrilled to have such an interactive, local, and educational place to take my children. With 4 floors of fun, there's something for every child. Both my husband and I have been here on 2 separate occasions. I went on a school field trip, and was overly pleased that it remained organized and was well thought out. I know they switch the themes out every so often, which makes it worth going EVEN MORE. If you're looking for a place where your kids can get their energy out, but also learn a thing here and there, go to the Shenandoah Discovery Museum.

Fantastic place to take kids for fun and learning! This museum immersed your kids in all kinds of fun learning play. From learning about bees to levers and pulleys, music, and gears. There is something for everyone here. Our little ones had a fantastic time.

My kids love this place. The museum has 4 levels with the 4th level being outside and boasts beautiful views of Winchester. There are many activities for the kids to engage, from puppet theater to a stuffed animal vet clinic. It closes at 3:30pm and you will need at least 2 to 3 hours to enjoy everything properly.

I took my children to this museum on a church youth trip. My kids really enjoyed the experience. The roof floor was by far their favorite of the entire experience. I loved the bee area and the live bee hive! Sooo cool! Try to go on less busy days. Less kids their the better your littles will enjoy their time. Everything is hands on and the more they can touch. The better the experience

Our first time here and our 2 year old loved it! So much to explore. Was extremely impressed- well worth the drive from Leesburg!

Great time was had by everyone all around - second floor was the preferred floor by our 18 month old. The bees were my personal favorite part. If we were local, this would be a great place for repeat visits. Great staff, fun exhibits, educational, and gives kids the freedom of choice.

My kids (3, 4, and 11) absolutely adore this place. We got the annual passes, and they paid for themselves quickly. We can easily spend a whole day on just one of the four floors. My kids can’t pick a favorite (maybe the large Rube Goldberg-inspired marble run near the entrance, the live honeybee exhibit, the tubular playground, or the temporary construction exhibit?). My favorite part is definitely the beautiful native plants garden on the roof, where the kids can run around, ride tricycles, play music, and explore.

I took my 14 month old and she loved it. It was refreshing for us to get out of the house and to take her to a place she can learn through play. There are 4 floors, the fourth consisting of a floor piano and rooftop. There are no toddler specific areas but each floor has activities that a toddler can get involved in. You can take The stairs or The elevator. The bathrooms are nice, clean and have changing tables. Staff is friendly and helpful. I hope this review helps everyone want to visit and helps others looking for a place to take their toddler.
