One recent visitor had this to say:

Just wanted to share what a great experience the Children's Museum is providing for young minds. Pretty interesting stuff for the not so young as well.

Though we live across town in NW Omaha, it was well worth a drive downtown to visit.

A Omaha Children's Museum staff member did a wonderful job of presenting some science to young minds.  Again, I saw a large number of older minds enjoying themselves as well.  Job well done.

Great organization, keep up the great work.
