An incredible place to explore for kids! My 4 year old spent 3 hours here discovering and learning. Not only do you learn about science, you also learn social skills when it comes to sharing and taking turns. There was a field trip with about 1000 kids (is what we were told!) so the place was unusually packed. Perfect for toddlers! We were hoping for the dinosaur exhibition but enjoyed the Barbie and L.A Kings exhibitions that were currently running. The carousel out front was spectacular. You can purchase all-day tickets or a single ride. It was the perfect way to end the visit. Little kids can ride (under 42” tall) so long as a parent or guardian is next to them holding them up. There’s a cafeteria that serves ready-made sandwiches, hot pizza, fruit and snacks. The bathrooms have changing tables and there’s a family bathroom on the 1st floor. Parking is free next to the park and it’s about 1 block away from the entrance of the Discovery Cube.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

This is an excellent choice for families with toddlers and children under 8 who love hands-on learning experiences. The interactive science exhibits, play supermarket, and carousel make it particularly engaging for young kids. Plan for 2-3 hours and be prepared for potential crowds during field trip season.

β€œI went for a field trip with a class I work in. It was really neat! The different sections are incredible! The play super market is huge! It had shopping carts, lots of awesome play foods, meats, literally looks like a real grocery store! The tablets that you use to go through the house was really neat and so fun while learning soo much about energy! Everything was soo well made and the amount of learning was incredible! We all had a great time! I'm grateful I got to go! I will definitely be going back to bring my kids! It's more than worth your money!!”

β€œFantastic place yo bring the kiddos. Just a heads up you can probably go thru this entire place in about 2hrs. But its a nice place to take kids and see some interesting science experiments. I love how the 2nd floor has new exhibits often. They had scooby doo mysteries on this trip. My son loves to come here and just get to touch everything. Recommend bringing kids for the experience.”
