The Whipple museum of th History of science is one of Cambridge's hidden jewels. It has a magnificent collection of antique scientific instruments to enjoy - but more importantly for young children, it has a great selection of activity bags and boxes on various subjects. You can spend a great afternoon of explorations!

For a campus museum, the collections are above or on par. While in terms of creating dialogues between audiences and collections, I would say the museum is subpar.
