Tulsa Children’s Museum ~Discovery Lab

We just recently went to the Tulsa Children’s Museum with some friends!

Unfortunatly I did not realize when I went they have joined the Oklahoma Museum Network so we did not have to pay to get in!

If you like to go to museums be sure to check out their site!

This is our second time getting it and we always get our money’s worth!

We got there around 10am and it was really crowded!

There were some field trips there though.

They left around noon and it was really nice.

Most of the activities are located in one big room.

It is mostly just hands on things for the kids to play with.

I was a little disappointed in the lack of educational information available in this room.

The boys loved the tape tunnel and slide!

I would have really liked to see a little bit of information about air pressure in this tubes area.

The boys did not really understand that by covering one tube you were changing the pressure in another tube.

When you first walk into the museum there is a little room to your right.

It is the Imagination Station area and seems more like you would expect a typical children’s museum to be.

It had information about what they were learning and had a lot of educational activities for them to do.

Overall it was a pretty good way to spend a couple hours.

I am really glad they are a part of the network though.

It is a pretty good deal to buy a membership at one of the network museums and then add on the museum network membership for $40.

That $40 gets you and 4 people into all the network museums for 1 year.
