Setting
Indoor
A hands-on childrens museum on the Poughkeepsie waterfront with about sixty exhibits packed into a manageable space. Kids build circuits, work a bubble station, climb through a play structure and mess with water tables and simple machines. Because it sits by the river you can walk out onto the Walkway Over the Hudson approach afterwards when the weather clears. It is not huge, so plan two hours rather than a day. The best indoor option in the mid-Hudson Valley for the under-tens.
