Our kids (ages 8, 6, and 4) said that the day we spent at Cognition was their favorite day of vacation, and it was a pretty great vacation. And yes, I do mean "day." We intended to spend a couple of hours at Cognition, arriving when it opened at 10:00 and leaving around lunchtime, but our kids, for the first time in their lives, insisted that they were not hungry and did not need lunch. The animals (guinea pigs, rats, tortoises, birds, and more), indoor playground, K'nex, play boat, electricity-generating bicycles, craft room, and tables of games (which are also fun for adults), beat out lunch. It was past 3:30 when we made them leave; they would have stayed until closing if we'd let them. If you are in the Beulah area and have kids, Cognition is not to be missed.

We were surprised to see how many activities there were inside this not very large building. Our granddaughter loved every second here, and after being there for over four hours, she didn't want to leave at closing time. She held several animals including a hedgehog, a large snake, guinea pigs, and a turtle, but the one thing she was most excited about was the Virtual Reality Experience. The person in charge of running it was so patient and he had a wealth of information that turned it into a real learning experience for our six year old granddaughter. After awhile he wanted to take a break but when he came back a few kids who had been in there playing all day went in to use it again and we didn't want to ask him to re-clean the whole system so that she could have another chance to use it.
With covid still lingering around, probably the only negative thing in coming here is that so many kids are touching all the stuff and we had to keep asking our granddaughter to wash her hands and be sure not to touch her face. There was also a small outside musical instrument garden, but everything else is inside. Everyone who worked here was kind and patient, and we are still amazed at how much fun she had the whole time she was at Cognition.

I took my grand-kids here last August and didn't really know what to expect. To my surprise there were a ton of activities and animals for the kids to play with for hours. The owner was extremely nice and great with the kids. We all enjoyed the visit and can't wait to go there again on our next visit to the area.

A hands on place for kids of all ages. We played with a snake and a hedge hog, made art work and watched baby eagles on the eagle camera
