My kids were excited to see the great science demonstration at science east. We spent 4 hours with kids there. Lots of fun and learning.

It`s been awhile since I`ve been here, but they have alot of fun things for kids to see and do. It is also a great llearning experience for children. On Saturdays you could stop by the farmers market which is right beside Science East before or after bringing your children here.

This is wonderful for kids but adults love it too. So much to see and do. A fun day and you learn lots through doing and experiencing. Its in an old building that had once been the city jail.
