  • We absolutely love this place. We have a membership to another museum at our home in Michigan, so we got to visit Science City for free! The staff is so friendly and helpful. Lots of room to explore.....  more

  • This was a great science museum for kids of a wide age range. We arrived at 10:30 and didn’t leave until 2:30. We were able to leave for lunch and then return. The outdoor play are is very nice.....  more

  • Wow! What a gem of a place. Kudos to the exhibit creators. Children of all ages & adults alike will find something amazing and interesting to see and learn about. Many reviews say 2 hours is enough - but you can easily spend 4+ hours, especially if you purchase a combo pass to include the planetarium. There were so many learning stations, sky bike, small animal exhibit, painting area, sand area, etc. I would highly recommend! We had 4 kids ages 5, 6, 7, & 10 with us and they all agreed this was a 5 star experience! Finally all staff members were friendly and interacted with the kids.
  • First timing going to science center and even for an adult I would have to say this is one of the better science museums that I’ve been to. Even the other adults in my group had the same view. The way they have everything set up is very thoughtful to really evoke learning through play. Our group included kids from 8-16yrs and everyone stayed engaged the full 2hrs. We could have spent more time if we had food but we were in between activities so didn’t plan to stay so long. I would highly recommend to go if you are in KC area and if you live in this area a membership would not be a bad idea too as the kids will really enjoy it. The best part is that there is also an outdoor play area that helps the kids to break up all the semi-formal learning to just play! Great great place for kids and cost is very reasonable when you take into account all the education you gain.
