Top Orlando Kid Friendly

Excellent science center with numerous interactive exhibits, movies, and learning opportunities. Each o e was better than the last-amazingly well done. Our grandson, 3 years, loved the dinosaur movie in The Dome theater. We spent over an hour among the dinosaur exhibit and another at the kids water zone.

We visit science museums everywhere we go and being able to provide hands on experience for our kids is very important for us. We’ve been to at least 20 or 30 different ones across the worldThis museum is almost the best when it comes providing inspiring and intriguing hands on experience. A lot of places use digital things (buttons etc) to be interactive with kids but this place is true hands-on. And amazingly they built a lot of exhibits in house and embed important science theories in it.Just amazing.

This is located on the north side of 527 (Princeton Street) just to the east of I-4. There are some surface parking lots or a parking garage across the street for a fee. My visit cost me about $15 for parking but allowed for a 3rd-floor entrance into the Science Center. The cost for tickets was about $25/person with discounts for lots of groups (Senior, AAA, Veteran, etc). The staff was very nice throughout the center. There is a lot to see and the Cinedome (Imax-type) movies are included with the tickets on a space-available basis. There is a lot to see and most of it is focused on children and the curious. This latest visit had a makerspace called the Hive, a dinosaur exhibit, an earth/space area, a kinetic zone, and an art exhibit. I got to see the movie Journey to Space about the space shuttle. Each of the areas had a lot of hands-on parts for people to experience science, physics and mental/physical acuity. There was a lot to do and see. Overall, it was a lot of fun and I highly recommend it for visitors to the area.
