Went here for a kids stem convention. We walked around and looked at all the things. They gave us a little stamp sheet to get from all of the booths around the museum. So we did lots of stuff like figure out what fingerprints we have, looked at some bugs and some pond water. That a lot of activities and things to do. Lots of the boost for giving out free stuff like stickers which I was very interested in. There's also like a Scooby-Doo exhibit room, which was neat. There was drones, VR headsets, and lots of little like remote control cars and sphere robots. I believe that most of this stuff was just there for this specific convention. But I think that you should follow this convention on social media and other stuff like that so you can see what upcoming events that they have going on. They also had lots of cool exhibits at the museum itself, like a bubble room. They had lots of different bubble contraptions like a bubble wall and being able to trap yourself in a bubble. They had some live snakes that were in aquariums that you could look at. They had a giant train set which was very cool. All in all, definitely recommend very cool place, and very cheap for what it is.

Wonderful for kids of all ages! There are so many things to see and do here, including rotating exhibits. For young ones (0-5), there is the a play area specifically dedicated for them. It includes a grocery store (complete with food items and shopping carts), a “dock” and boat where little ones can “fish” with magnetic fishing poles and fish, a school bus and fire truck to “drive”, a food truck, a play home, and more! For older ones, there are many rooms and exhibits that cater to many different interests. There’s a water/bubble room, a tea party room, a music room, live animal exhibits, outdoor historic village, theater, and more. If you’re a local with children (or even grandchildren), the membership is totally worth it. If you’re not a local, this is still a great place to take the kiddos for a fun afternoon.
