    Great Time For The Kiddos!

    There was a ton of really neat things for kids to do and have fun learning! We spent several hours here. The only complaint was they didn't have any food you could buy.

    Really awesome place that even adults can enjoy. Able to move through the museum with relative ease and short wait time to do puzzles or activities.

    This was a great place to hang out on a rainy day. My daughter has been several times and still asks to go back. The gentleman leading the live animal show was very educational and entertaining.

    We were there on a rainy day with an 8 and 10 year old. They loved feeding the turtles and fish outside. They also enjoyed the touch tank. They breezed past many of the tanks, but it was worth the visit! Very reasonable!!!
