    Awesome, super fun place
    Discovery Place was a key part of my very early childhood-I went frequently and loved the atmosphere, science, animals, and fun activities. It is a great place for a wide variety of ages, with fun science ranging from physics and the human body to animals and aquariums. I recently went with my class on a field trip and it was still just as awesome!

    Family of Four. Everyone had fun!
    Kids of all ages enjoyed this museum. We went for the Antarctic Exhibit recently and my girls (2 & 4) loved it. They're also big fans of the toddler play area (water table, light pegs, blocks, and so much more). There's a cafe on the mail floor for food/snacks. They change things up enough that going a few times a year still feels fresh. We've taken many family members that come to visit. The biggest fans so far were my teenage nieces (15 and 13). The 15 year old just wanted to stay there all day. Lots to see and do, and the kids - and adults - walk away learning something new.
