Get to know what’s under your skin at Sesame Street Presents: The Body. This amazing educational exhibition teaches children how their bodies work and how to stay healthy as they hop, jump, run and dance their way through this hands-on Sesame Street adventure!
This is a very hands on exhibit for kids at the Buffalo Science Museum. We visited there yesterday afternoon and we spent the majority of our afternoon in this one display. It’s very engaging for young kids. The science museum itself I find to be kind of small even though it’s in a huge building. And it’s geared more for adults than kids although what they do have for kids is very well done and will entertain your kids for quite a while. It’s just when comparing it to the Rochester Science Museum which has hands on exhibits for kids throughout the museum this one doesn’t, it’s more compartmentalized. Of course it depends on what your kids are interested in too, mine are touchy feely. 
This special exhibit is on it’s way out! June 9th is it’s last day there before moving on to another museum. The museum is open 7 days a week from 10am-4pm. Children 2-17yr are $6, so are students and military with ID. Adults 18+ are $8, and Seniors are $7. Museum members are free. This is where being a member of your local science museum is a bonus because you can use that to get in here free too. Parking is free as well.
Playground outside the museum
After a day inside and before the long drive home we took our kids outside to run off some energy on the playground. You have to walk around to the backside of the building on the far side of the basketball court.
Military Members Get In FREE May 31
BMS is offering free admission to military members on May 31 with the presentation of military ID, veterans ID or discharge papers and photo ID at the admissions desk.
