Carson City being the family-friendly place that it is, of course there's a museum that's just for kids, although adults are welcome if they're well behaved (and are accompanied by a child). With a variety of activity-focused themed rooms, the museum has a play-based approach to inspiring kids to take an interest in science, art and everyday life and is best suited to pre-teens accompanied by their parents.
