    SEE Science Center image
    Awesome exhibit! Everything is hands-on, which means Mom is following behind everyone with a bottle of hand sanitizer. I loved that the exhibits explain things how kids understand (ex: cookie factory to explain DNA/RNA coding) and also that there were several placards in English and Spanish. The science center is two levels of fun. Our four year old found so many interesting exhibits and did not want to leave. We spent about 2 hours here. Free parking at 200 Bedford lot, but the street in front of the museum is metered. See more..
