Maybe. I keep my 2 and 5 year old grandsons two days a week, and I probably wouldn’t take them there. My little one would have to be in a stroller, and the 5 year old would probably think it was boring, but hey, you never know with kids. Definitely not all day- couple hours max with kids. While they have some interesting displays, this is a fine art museum, no running wild or touching. But for a short time, I believe in introducing kids to Art, bored or not.
