The fun and hands-on displays at Childrens Museum will keep the kids entertained for hours. With so many things to engage young minds here, they won't even know they're learning!

Childrens Museum charges admission, so grab some cash and head on over to the riverside district of Merced. Where to next after the interactive exhibit for kids? National Park, Museum of Costa Rican Art and National Theater are some nearby attractions worth a visit if you've still got time.
