Excellent technology/science muesum
We went to the museum from 12 to 17.30 closing and it was too short. I would recommend to go a whole day of you are going with children. There are lots of exhibitions and experiments to do. There is one section in which you can do experiments in a lab. Everything was really nice organized

Great learning experience for children but over-crowded and expensive.
The museum was packed with school children and the open plan of each floor meant that it was extremely noisy. It’s a great place for children to learn but adults will find it somewhat disappointing as it’s relatively difficult to get access to many of the exhibits due to the numbers of people. That said, the displays in the forth floor relating to human evolution and the senses was excellent; lots of interesting information and fun activities to develop one’s understanding. The restaurant was good as were the views from the fifth floor terrace over Amsterdam were.
