K C: Great experience with the kids.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Not sure …

Tunes Squad: I liked this children's museum, my child is a toddler and had lots of fun here but I feel like it's missing activities for older kids. There was alot of empty space that I feel could be filled but over all its a very nice kids museum.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait …

Emily Canibano Sky Yoga Studio: but that’s more to do with parents not being anywhere near their children. The price has gone up on all children’s museums so we’re glad they have reciprocity with ACM. One level and once inside it’s not as noisy as the Armory. If taking the monorail follow the exit to the right past the sign for the armory- or have fun in the park but don’t follow Waze directions walking :

Felicia D Wray: Absolutely awesome for the children.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Yes …

Joelle Okeke: The kids had a lot of fun. It is pretty small but lots to do in the space.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No …

Jorgen Larson: Always a good time with the kids

Kurt Chapin: Fantastic place! Get the annual membership to save some money! Members get access to all of the local children's museums around the Puget Sound area, anytime or any day. Definitely worth the price! If you're on any sort of public assistance, the price is only $35 for the entire year. The one in Everett is a bit better because it's twice as big or more, but still, the one in Seattle is a great time for the kids and grown-ups alike. I can't say enough about this spot! Keep a close eye on the little ones at the museum, they have a tendency to run off between exhibits. I have seen the employees tending to many lost and very upset children. I honestly don't know what some of these parents are thinking. Watch your darned kids for crying out loud!! The only reason is not more of an issue is because there is only the one entrance and exit, and it is watched closely by staff. Truly a great spot to let the kids go a bit wild and play till they drop!! Worth every penny!!

Living Computers: Museum + Labs: what do users think?

ThatKomputerKat: This was really cool when it was open. Glad I was able to go in 2019.I think at this point it’s really absurd that this listing says “temporarily” closed though. It’s been four years writing this as of March 2024. There have been no changes to the website beyond the copyright date since early 2020. There have been no blog posts or social media account updates since then either. The contact form does not give any indication that your submission ever went anywhere.Unless someone swoops in to make the current owner an offer they can’t refuse I just do not believe that this place is ever reopening.

Amy Kim: We were looking forward to visiting. It's very unfortunate to hear that it's closed.

Dave Bacon: Save the Living Computer Museum!

Sedona Leza: I miss you being open! So! Fun!!!

A H: We had a free museum pass so decided to stop by with two kids aged 3 and 11 without knowing anything about the museum. We were pleasantly surprised by many fun interactive aspects of the museum. They had a huge panoramic screen with a batman looking car for all to enjoy what virtual driving/self driving feels like. They also had a robot with a screen you can control around the museum. Many fun activities that kept our kids busy for about an hour and half.

Wayne Dyck: Absolutely amazing place if you are into computers and history.

Alberto M Trigo: Amazing place the whole family can have fun you can be there hours and it is right next to a Starbucks factory go

Joel Tindall: Great for the price.

Robert Feder: This museum in Seattle has a series of exhibits about computers, computer systems and artificial intelligence.The exhibits starts with the first computers made during WWII. They explain , better than I have ever seen it before, how computers really work. This museum has activities for kids. The Living Computer Museum is a great place to go as part of a trip to Seattle and is highly recommended.

Wing Luke Museum of the Asian Pacific American Experience: what do users think?

Tianhe Yang: Learning about our past unlocks a greater understanding of who we are and how we can more effectively navigate the world around us. The Wing Luke Museum enlightened us with compelling storytelling via its detailed exhibits and tour, taking us back in time and offering a slice of life of Asian American immigrants from China, Japan, and Southeast Asia. Would highly recommend the guided tour as it was educational and immersive thanks to the deep knowledge and genuine passion of the staff.

Abhay Donthi: Excellent museum in the International District! We spent about 3 hours there learning about the history of Asian immigration and culture in the United States and in the Seattle area. Would strongly recommend the free tour - it's offered at 10:30 and 1:30 I believe. Our tour guide, Hana, was super knowledgeable, engaging, and shared a lot of details about Asian history in the area. It was fascinating to learn about how the greater Seattle area has transformed over time with waves of Chinese, Japanese, and Filipino immigration, and how exclusionary legislation has shaped the community over time. Definitely check it out!

Anne Van: I learned so much about the local Asian/American communities! The guide curated our tour to our interests in activism and provided a great amount of information.A gem of local education!

Allen Grimes (Advantage Youth Tennis): Very nice museum with a lot of history. The guide was knowledgeable. Place was hot and stuffyVisited on Weekday Wait time 10–30 min …

Frank Tedesco: A must go. Outstanding presentations of AAPI points of view.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No …

Tamy: Museum has loads of stories on the AAPI history and experiences. My sister and I took the guided tour, and it was definitely worth it. Got the chance to check out the store next door, toured the former hotel, and learned about the hardships endured by the many early immigrants. Han was a great storyteller, knowledgeable and answered many of our group's questions.

Sean Nicely: One of the highlights of our trip to Seattle was a guided tour through the Kong Yick Building with our guide, Tess. We learned so much and felt as though we had time to truly explore a "time capsule" convenience store and hotel. If you have the chance to go on this tour with Tess, take it!

Kevin Line: Amazing experience, you have to take the guided tour for the behind the scenes and deeper understanding of Asian culture and immigration.

Addison Peabody: Incredible museum, well-curated exhibits and an excellent guide. Such an important piece of Seattle history, excited to go back and learn more!

Vania Kurniawati: if during the week, or on weekends outside of the peak dimsum and dinner hours.

Wendy Bunker: This museum had been at the top of my list for a while, was so glad I went when I did. They currently have an exhibit about how the development of I-5 and the stadiums impacted the international district and displaced its citizens. It was a very meticulously researched exhibit and very well put together with some interactive elements. It was fascinating to see how much Seattle has changed with development. There was also a wonderful exhibit about Asian culture and music. The museum admission is very affordable, and includes tours of a time capsule style apartment and store from the original International district. I didn't do the whole museum but do plan to go back. The gift shop was very cute and offered a large selection of books about/written by Asian people both for kids and adults. There was a lot of cultural art and the girl at the counter was very friendly. When you walk into the museum, there is a stunning dragon hanging from the ceiling that deserves admiration. If you are looking to learn more about how important the SID is, please check out the Wing Luke Museum.

Jenny P: Learned so much through the tour of the shop next door and connected "apartments" that are both frozen in time. The exhibits were fun and informative as well. Great place to spend a few hours and get cultured! Also Bruce Lee of course. Inspired to hone in my mind, body, and spirit now.Bought my ticket on site as there was no price difference vs online.
