This place is just GROSS!
This place is just GROSS!! The food tastes like they started cooking mexican and then forgot, threw in some corn and called it good. BARF! It is expensive, and the hipsters behind the counter are just rude. NEVER AGAIN...

This place is great.
This place is great. I have a 5 year old boy and a 7 year old girl. We were down in San Antonio for a wedding and needed something fun for the kids to so we came here. We are from Austin where the Childrens museum just plain sucks. This was fun, pretty, lots to do and even my husband and I had a good time. The staff was friendly. Other reviews have mentioned that it gets loud and that is true but it is a "childrens museum" not a baby museum and kids are just loud in general. We will visit again for sure! Love it!

Meh.
Meh...This place is OK. My kids always have fun but it is not the best kids museum I have ever been to. They do change their exhibits but they change to ones they have done in the past. If I have to see THE BIG GAME one more time...The staff is only mildly friendly, I witnessed a reading session where the guy reading was so monotoned that half the kids got up and left.
The parking is a joke and it needs more to do in general. I think it best for the occasional visit when you can't find anything else to do.

This place could be way cooler.
This place could be way cooler. They have neat stuff but too much of the same thing, It was cold and dusty and over priced. On the up side, the lady at the counter was super nice and helpful. I think they are brand new-ish so maybe they will get better with age. Still worth looking in there if you are looking for a world-vibe style furniture.

This place is just plain FUN!
This place is just plain FUN!!! I have been here several time and I always take my out of town guests here when they want to take home something "Austin-y." They have lots of cool knick-knacks, pretty jewelry, day of the dead stuff etc. I love, love love it!! Go there now!!
