Took my 1.5 year old on a play date here. We had a blast! Kids 3 and under are free fyi. They have dinosaur bones and a place you can dig for fossils. My girl loved all the taxidermy animals (they didn't run away like the zoo 😆), and she had so much fun looking at the display with the horse saddle upstairs. They also have a cool water table type area outside and an adorable toddler play area in the basement of the heb tree house. The celery slide was everyone's favorite part! The rest of the playhouse for older kids you do need a pass of some sort, and the things they have available are designed for your child to learn about their health and body.
They have plenty of picnic space and a cafe on site (no coffee or open drinks allowed in through main entrance) that is very reasonably priced. I got a 12 in quesodilla and water for $6. They also offer a fig and sunflower butter sandwich that my friend and her kids absolutely adore.

We met up for a play date here ages 16 months to 3 years. All the kids had so much fun! We were there at 10 when they opened so there wasn't very many bigger kids we had to worry about with the small kids which was nice. They have an awesome toddler area that has a ton to do! We easily spent 2 hours here and could have done even more. The pricing however is inconsistent I didn't realize until later my friend who had herself and 2 (15m and 3y) kids paid around 15 dollars and I was charged 25 for myself and one 17m old.
