If you are traveling to Warsaw with kids, clear a whole day for the Copernicus Science Centre. It is one of the best science museums in Europe, and it is the kind of place children beg to go back to.
Spread across several floors are hundreds of hands on experiments, and the emphasis really is on hands on. Kids pull levers, build circuits, launch things, and figure out how the world works by playing. Nothing is behind glass. There is a planetarium, a section for the youngest visitors, and enough variety that a wide range of ages stays happily busy for hours.
My advice is to book a timed entry ticket online in advance. It is a hugely popular spot, especially on weekends and rainy days, and slots sell out. Arrive when it opens to get a good run before it fills up, and plan to break for lunch on site rather than trying to leave and come back.
It sits down on the riverside in the Powiśle district, so on a nice day you can pair it with a walk along the Vistula, and in summer even the river beaches. It is the perfect anchor for a day that balances out the heavier history elsewhere in the city.
