The beautiful indoor courtyard garden that blooms year round is a wonderful treat with stone paths and little benches where you may rest. Family Programs are available for children over five.

NOT Kid-friendly, Tue 5 Jan 2010
We took our two girls, 1 1/2 and 3 years old, to the museum on New Year's day. This was our first visit to the Gardner Museum. It was not a pleasant experience. The security guards were extremely rude. They followed us around and scolded us for unreasonable reasons such as touching the red ropes, leaving our stroller in the hallway to go look at an exhibit and using the stroller on the stairs even though we carried it and our child was not in it. We spoke with the director of security and let him know how uncomfortable we were made to feel. I definitely won't be back. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with children who are below 6 years old.
