    Hands on discovery for all ages! So many things to see and touch. They also do birthday parties that have a guided staff member to answer the kiddos questions. Knowledgeable and patient staff with the kids. Overall, we had a great time.

    What a fun place to take our kids! We recently got a membership for Christmas which makes going so much more enjoyable. I do think it’s a bit pricey to pay each time you go and feel like I have to stay a while go get my money’s worth so with a membership, dropping in for an hour with the kids is doable and much more enjoyable. I have kids from 2-8 and they all find something to enjoy.
