El Papalote, Museo del Niño Review
Five theme sections compose this excellent interactive children's museum: Our World; The Human Body; Con-Sciencia, with exhibits relating to both consciousness and science; Communication, on topics ranging from language to computers; and Expression, which includes art, music, theater, and literature. There are also workshops, an IMAX theater (note that tickets are discounted if purchased with museum tickets as part of a package), a store, and a restaurant.
