  5. 5.0 The Children's Museum of the Upstate (8 reviews)
    - Great spot for young children

    This place is an excellent option for children seven and under. Even our nine-year-old kid had fun entertaining his toddler brother. This is a fantastic place because it is both fun and educational. The tactile experience helps them learn while they play. There is a very large water table with multiple activities for them to play around with. My kids probably could’ve spent the entire time there alone. There are multiple stations for building things. Among the other options is a railroad table, a tree house , a cafe, a medical station and a play grocery store. This place has a crafts room which is used for both visitors and for camps but they set up during the summers. It’s a very good value and essentially located. There is on street parking and a garage across the street with the first two hours free. They offer military discounts too! We have been to many children’s museums and multiple states and this one is one of the better ones for very young kids. See more..
