Below is a list of many, if not all, of the main museums in the San Francisco Bay Area. If you know of any others, feel free to let me know via comment. I have visited several of these museums but not all of them. I hope to have commentary for all of them either from me or others, so please pass on your comments for your fellow moms if you have an experience with any of them. It is a great way to get your child interested in the world around him and familiar with other cultures, countries and various art. Some museums have partnerships for discounted rates with memberships for frequent visitors such as the national parks. This is a great family activity and educational too! Enjoy!
