★★★★★Lauren QuebedeauxAll age children's museum housed in the Missoula Public Library, spectrUM entertained our kids for hours! Don't miss this free family adventure!
★★★★★Jaydyn FSuper fun place for kiddos of all ages!
★★★★★Ashley LindsayThis is the absolute coolest feature in any library ever. My kids love it and it keeps them engaged! My only complaint is that I never remember to bring extra clothes because they always get soaked by the water feature.
★★★★★Eve LahtiMy boys really had a great time and loved all the different activities!! Can't wait to bring my older children here to play in the robotics area...looks like fun too!!
