Located in Norwalk's Mathews Park, this fun and funky children’s museum has a little of everything and is a great place to bring the little ones for a day of learning and play. Every aspect of the building is forward-thinking, from the LEED certified energy efficient features to the roof garden that absorbs rainwater and cools the building. All of the exhibits are planned with the same attention to detail, with visitors raving about the “Water Works” area at the entrance, which lets kids get hands-on with fluid dynamics. Be warned: your kid will get wet, no matter how much you wrap them up. Other favorite exhibits include the fog maker, which always draws a crowd, as well as the Build It! section that lets kids explore the world of architecture and construction with a LEGO raceway, roller coaster, in-progress house and more. It might be one of the best children's attractions near Stamford Corners Apartments.
