The museum is very nice. We arrived at 2 pm and left right at closing time, enough time to see all the exhibits. Wanted to try The Coffee Spot but the line was huge and they closed at 3 pm ( museum closes at 5pm) . The food at the 4Roots Cafe was good, the bowls have a nice amount for one person ( I got the Small for $6 and some change)
The museum is clean and organized. We will come back again!
Also buy the tickets in advance for faster admission into the museum.

We stopped for a couple of hours during a road trip and were able to explore most of the museum in that time. One floor is dedicated to toddler and preschool play areas, which we skipped since our kids are a bit older. Our 9-year-old especially loved *The Hive*, where she got to create a project using recycled cardboard. They offer two project options, but unfortunately, it's only available for older kids, which left our 6-year-old a little disappointed. Highlights for both kids included the interactive touch tank with live sea creatures—it was a big hit! Right next to it is a fun, digital kaleidoscope wall where kids can design their own colorful patterns. We found free (3-hour limit) street parking by the parking garage, which was super convenient. We also used our ASTC reciprocal membership for admission, which was a great perk. Overall, this is a fun and educational spot that's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
Had a wonderful time today here. Loved the exhibits and interactive puzzles and displays. The nature feature was wonderful and loved to see the birds and animals they had. The staff were very courteous and helpful. The parking garage was very convenient with a bridge connected to the Museum. Everything was also wheelchair accessible, with a little wait at elevators. They have 2 elevators available for every level. Only down side was the cinadom, we watched “force of nature” and the screen was too dark and blurry and the sound was not great. During show I was constantly distracted by the lines of the screen. The show was very informative just wished I could have enjoyed watching it better.
A fantastic spot where kids can both learn and have fun! The third floor features an exciting area for kids aged 8 and up to create and film their own one-minute movie. Highly recommend taking the kids to the movie-making section — it’s a must-visit!
