This is an excellent little Museum of Natural History, especially for such a small city. The collection has changed very little, though, in more than 60 years. The premises include an excellent planetarium, which puts on daily shows.

The science museum was not large. After walking through, thought there was more, wondering when the experience starts. This was the first of the museums we went into. Just glad it got much better after this one

Not a very large or up to date space, but adequate to spend a few hours in. We traveled from central Mass with our 2 year old and visited the variety of museums. Our favorite was actually the history museum. The science museum didn't seem to keep our toddler interested for very long and the history museum had a nice... More

The rating may throw some off but this really is a great place to bring the kids. It isn't necessarily better then other places and can't compare with the really big science museums in the huge cities but it is an average place with lots for children to see.

I lived in the area my whole life and the last 30 years in Springfield. This was my first visit to the museums and it was a great time. I am looking forward to returning many times to see all of the displays in the various buildings . I highly recommend visiting the museum and enjoying the great displays.

This a favorite for my family. Springfield has so much to offer and this is maybe the best after Forest Park. Of course you get the Dr. Seuss scuptures just outside as well so the kids have a great time and there are other museums right there as well as a fantastic library.

Although some of the displays are old, it's still a fun time for the kids..I now plan on bringing my grandchildren. Just went this summer with a young niece and it was great.

This is a great place to learn science without knowing your doing it. Lots of hands on pay for kids. Saturday afternoon events and science at its best!
