Yes. I took my children there a couple of times three years ago and they really liked it. Its themes are more adult-oriented, but they have certainly managed to make it child-friendly.

For example, there are reconstructions of urban buildings to explore, and a section on the surveillance society at which a child can have his/her picture taken for a fun, laminated ID card.

Enjoy.
