I love the Petersen, but they never seem to have free days or discount days. This groupon offers half price admission for 2 or 4, and the batch for 2 is already sold out. The admission for 4 is priced at $24, as opposed to $48 full price.
I was a little nervous about taking my son here the first time, because it is a museum and I thought he'd want to touch and ride on all the cars. It was a bit hard keeping him off the displays on the first 2 floors, but luckily for everyone the third floor is made for kids! They can sit on the motorbike and antique cars, and they have a huge hot wheels size wooden race track they can use, so pack some hot wheels to bring along and play! The track is really tall, and I seem to remember we had to lift the kids up to reach even though they did have some steps.
The second floor also had a Cars exhibit when we went. It had a huge cut out poster of Lightning McQueen (great for posing pictures), and a wall display of every Cars character imaginable in miniature size. It was pretty cool for my son, who was really into Cars at the time. I think this time he might be more into the Batmobile!!
I also read that they have a huge Hot Wheels display section. I don't remember that part, but that might have something to do with the infant I was also carting around that day:)
So, if the kids are getting restless just pop up to the "family floor" and get some play out before you resume car watching! There is also a Johnny Rockets and a gift shop on the first floor.
