I just love that they are constantly updating and improving things. We really enjoyed the new pet clinic, and how much they have improved the market and kitchen/food area. I can't wait to come back to see what they're working on for the main floor! read more

I love to come here. Def more like little kid play area than museum. Def tailors to more small children! Love their Friday activities. The one thing that does stink about this place is there are toooo many reading corners. I love that in a museum but there are like four areas on the second floor all right next to eachother and this has potential for other exhibits. Although really looking forward to the water exhibit they are building! I've also seen so much progress in this place since moving here two years ago! Third floor is def where we spend most of our time. Again made for more little kids. Older kids would get bored fast! read more

Really fun! We happened to come here on a free play day without knowing it. We just wanted to play on the cool octopus playground (which is free), but when we went inside for the bathrooms they informed us it was a free play day so we went and played. This museum is 3 floors of fun & so worth a visit! They have a special toddler play area for kids under 4 on the 2nd floor also. They have a diversity of things like a (play) farmer's market, vet clinic, fire truck, climb & slide area, a beehive, sensory play and more. I highly recommend this place! read more

This place was wonderful! It has multiple floors of fun - from slides to a fire truck to a farm for toddlers, there is plenty to see and do. This could easily keep children busy for hours and aside from the stairs, it's pretty well contained so kids can play without getting into dangerous situations. Well worth a rainy day visit. read more

We visited here after Labor Day. Pretty quiet weekday with a few visitors. Parking is by meter so bring coins. Our son enjoyed all floors especially Rachel's favorite exhibit. We also enjoyed fishing, campfire, and school house. There is even nursing area in 2nd floor which was perfect for my wife. Overall, a great place to visit with your toddlers and has elevator if you have stroller. They accept ACM reciprocal membership for 50% off. Also free coffee is available too. read more

Doesn't look like a museum but don't be fooled by the exterior. This place will keep your toddler entertained! We bought tickets in advance online and check in was a breeze. The first floor was a bit of a waste for our 2 year old but would definitely keep an older child entertained with the golf ball tracks and play stations. Second floor is also good for older kids because you have a tunnel of nets that span the floor and lead to a slide that goes down to the first floor. Third floor has a honey bee display, a make believe spot for a theatre and circus, colorful playmats and a life size lite-bright room! There is also a family restroom and lactation space in the farm area that is designated for younger kids (toddlers and younger). It was very accommodating to parents, especially those who have kids that are still breastfeeding. Fourth floor had a ship area that has fishing poles and pulleys as well as a row boat, market (make believe out door market with plenty of plastic fruits, meats, breads, veggies), an old time classroom and a fire engine. Honestly there is something for every type of child. Even some books on the third floor for your bookworms. Right now during covid there are sign up times for 2 hour slots and a mandatory closure from 12-1 for sanitizing. We found the place clean and not crowded at all on a rainy Sunday afternoon. It's friendly for disabled with an elevator to get from floor to floor. Otherwise there are stairs which are fun for the kids (under supervision). Parking was a breeze. We noticed there was a party room so you could most likely host a birthday party here. Great spot for an afternoon with kids. Makes it easy to have a family vacation here where the kids are entertained and adults can golf at Kohler. read more

Nice little playroom / children's museum. Place is clean. Kids enjoyed the different exhibits. Prices were reasonable. Not a destination, but a decent place for kids to play for an hour or two. read more

Great children's museum, my little girl had a blast exploring each floor and each exhibit, and it was pretty inexpensive for a children's museum. First floor and mezzanine: had a lot of mechanical exhibits. My LO really liked the rude Goldberg machine, played that over and over again, and also the wind tunnel machine, and the life size pin board was really neat to play with. There was also a climbing structure, rope tunnel and spiral staircase that she had fun monkeying around on. I had fun playing the harp piano and whompamaphone - lots of fun and pretty loud! Second floor had a bee exhibit - really cool to watch all those bees - probably the most memorable exhibit for my LO. She loves bees and had a lot of fun watching the bees at work. Second floor also had a toddler play area, which my sister's baby got lots of play out of, and a circus exhibit, but part of it was under construction. Oh, and the shadow box and glow room were pretty cool - life sized lite brite! 3rd floor had a fire truck/house exhibit, little school house, and a boat/fishing exhibit - lots of fun playing around on those structures, catching fish, trying on fireman turnout gear. Would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for something to do with the little ones. Only thing, bring quarters for parking - looks like the only parking is on the street with meters. Max is 2 hrs (I think), but after about an hour, just put more coins in if you need more time. They also have a little bistro area for parents with tables and a little coffee bar setup. read more

Awesome place for a kid to play! Things seemed very clean and everyone was very friendly. My son had so much fun with all of the exhibits. The blue climbing tube across the entire ceiling was very cool! Like most places for kids, weekdays seem like the best times. If you're in the area or passing by, it's worth a stop! read more

A great place for kids around 7 and under. Safe, fun climbing, slides and play spaces. 3 floors of interesting activities and beautiful murals. Very clean and well maintained. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Plenty of street parking. A true treasure. read more

We loved visiting with our 18 month old...she loved the toddler farm, and we know she'll continue to love this as she grows. A hidden gem in the heart of Sheboygan!! read more

Above and Beyond Children's Museum is such a great place to visit! We are excited to visit during a weekend soon! They are very friendly and helpful if you call with questions and their website is great for what they have coming up. You're awesome ABCM!! read more

Hands down our kid's favorite children's museum, which is saying A LOT! We were visiting Sheboygan and it happened to be a cold, rainy day - Looking for activities indoors, we found this. I'll be honest it didn't look like a museum or really anything, but once you walk in those doors, it's a whole new world. Sure, there's exhibits that don't totally work or are missing pieces, but who cares? The kids certainly don't :) We had a blast. There's so many different levels and types of exhibits/activities. Our kid was having so much fun that moving to Sheboygan for this and the Bookworm Gardens (highly recommend checking it out too!!) was a very serious, yet unfortunately not logistical, thought. Also, the cost was extremely low - We're used to having to pay significantly more for children's museums our kid loses interest in within a matter of hours, but she was not ready to go after a full open-close day at this place. read more

Really great little kids museum we found while visiting the American Club. Love the upstairs with the built-in ship and market.

My daughter loved it here! So much fun! The one thing I disliked about the museum is that they have a huge circus display on their second floor and I think it's horrible to teach children that it is okay to use animals for entertainment purposes. read more

This place was really nice. Certainly better than the one in Green Bay. 3 floors of fun. An ACM reciprocal member, so if you're a member at another museum, you get in at 50% off, which isn't bad. 6 bucks otherwise, which isn't bad for what you get. For free you can play around in the garden area outside if nothing else and that's pretty nice. So, we were travelling from Door County back home to the Chicagoland area. Opted to stop for lunch in Sheboygan, figured we could tire the 1.5 year old child out some to nap well in the car here. It worked out well, although it's probably a bit better for older children (as these things often are). Downtown Sheboygan is kind of a ghost town. We never saw another person on the early sunday afternoon time there. This place and the restaurant just on the next block, The Black Pig, impressed us though. You can eat at a restaurant that good for adults and reasonably appealing for kids and go to a decent museum all in one stop. That's a quality stop. There's 3 floors, the first floor is kind of double height, a lot of the buildings in the area seem to be this way, it looks like. So they have a pretty elaborate climbing structure that almost makes two separate floors and there's some suspended habitrails that go around the first floor and you can crawl around above everyone else. There's a fun little rube goldberg machine that you can do to make a bell ring that my kid kept making us do for him. 2nd floor has an exhibit of a live beehive you can look inside and it's swarming with bees that I think can fly in and out from the museum, I'm not exactly sure. It seemed to be in progress, but very neat. It has their miniature circus exhibit that is somewhat interesting to see, and has some very minor interaction to make things spin around within it. There's also some pretty well outfitted make-believe areas of a small store and a doctor's office. A toddler room entranced my toddler pretty well, and it had a small sized bathroom if your child is at that stage. 3rd floor has a pretty large scale fire truck setup with some dress-up stuff, and a small old-timey school house and a pretty impressive boat setup (you can see the boat sticking out the sides of the building, which is nifty). There are costumes as well for the boat. Nicely, they have some adult sized ones too, so hammy adults can act silly with the kids. We really liked this place, and would check it out again. This and The Black Pig made us want to check out the area more and had we the time we probably would have, but as a stop about 5-10 minutes off the expressway, it won us over. read more

What a lovely place. Large, clean, well maintained, with lots of different areas. Really, a great set-up for a town that isn't too big. Our toddler had a wonderful time here. We'll be back whenever we're in town. read more

Fantastic well done facility - exceeded our expectations by far. The boat and fire truck on the fourth floor are impressive!

Really pleasant surprise. 3 floors of fun and a cool rope ladder and slides. Great way to spend the morning with young kids

Like this Children's Museum better than Milwaukee. Small but fun and engaging for our little ones. Signed up as a new member. So we have to and want to come back. read more

Great fun for me and my 3 year old! We could've spent hours here. It looks small from the outside, but there are many floors with different activities. We came on a Thursday afternoon and the place was practically empty. Great outing for out-of-town guests on a rainy day. Recommend! read more
