The kids love Imagination Station! We've been to numerous science and children's museums across the country with our membership and this is a favorite! A great combination of engaging science exhibits and creative play spaces. A nice selection of regular exhibits and always a fun and interesting changing exhibit. A great place to explore and experiment! More

We took our 6 & 9 year old nephews to the Imagination Station because it was too cold to go to the zoo. They said they had more fun than they would have had at the zoo. Lots of hands on displays for both ages. The little one really enjoyed the science experiment shows. We were there for 4 1/2... More

Toledo may not be the travel mecca of the world, but it does offer a couple gems including the Imagination Station. My daughters spent a full day here (both under age 7). Even as adults, there is plenty to keep you entertained. More

I have kids ranging in age from 1 to 5 and they love the Imagination Station. There are lots of things to do and you could easily spend all day there. We bought a membership from Groupon and it was a great deal. We wouldn't be able to afford to go without the membership though, because it is quite pricey... More

Fun and educational attraction for kids but many of the displays are worn out and not functioning properly. More

Imagination Station was the favorite part of our kid's vacation. The hands-on activities are excellent and perfect for the 3-10 year old range. Older kids will be bored. Prices are good ($9 adult, $7 children). More

PROS: Based on our experience, this is best suited for ages 12 and under. There are a variety of areas throughout the facility for each age group. Our family group ranged in age from 16 months, 3 years, 9 years, and four adults who found the exhibits intriguing and fun to play in too! The secured area for the youngest... More

I took my 11 year old daughter and her 13 year old friend to the Imagination Station for the first time just this week. It was wonderful! It is very spacious and well laid out. I thought all of the exhibits were great. I've been other museums of this sort that have the same type of exhibits but are old... More

We visited over Christmas break with the kids ages 11 and 7. What a fun time! I read the reviews before I went and was surprised to see that someone said it was too pricey. We spent $32 for a family of four and ate lunch at the cafe for $20 (total). That is a great value in my opinion.... More
