We went to the new Utah Children's Museum today, which is now called Discovery Gateway. Personally I think that it costs WAY TOO MUCH money for what they have in the museum. It was $8.50 per person and we even had to pay for Kitty (and that's with a discount for being Utah residents). Plus you have to pay to park at the Gateway. I didn't think that it was much improved over the old museum - other than being in a bigger building. The kids did end up having fun in the end but I'm not sure if we will go back for some time.
The first exhibit that we went to was a large open area with different tables set up to build on with different objects. (Above) M&M has built a structure with blocks to see how they would withstand earthquake forces.

Kitty managed to get her hands on 2 baby dolls and a stroller (these were hot items in the child-size town). When we finally made it to this part of the museum it was getting fairly crowded and Kitty was the only child among our kids who would stick up for herself and hold onto things when another child came to try and take it. She's definitely got a fiesty side to her...

I'm glad that you were able to go. I hate how expensive things are getting. The kids look like they had a good time.
