Took the kiddos and they loved it. Employees were nice and helpful. If your looking for something to do with the kids give this place a shot.

We love the Science Center! I take my 2 and 4 year old boys weekly to play and enjoy the exhibits. The staff are wonderful and the classes offered are excellent! We are so blessed to have such an amazing resource in our area.

This place was great. We have kids from 8 to 1 and they all had a great time. What I really liked is most of the exhibits are hands on and that really kept them occupied.

Fabulous and I don’t often give praise. We took our grandson and were there for hours. He loved it and so did we.
