What parents say
What a fun and kid-friendly place! An interactive museum for children is brilliant; educational as well as exciting. Every staff member that we encountered were exceptionally friendly and personable! We will definitely be back!
My 6 and 4 year old had a great time here on a Saturday. We've been to other children museums and they voted this one as they're favorite. The museum was clean and easy to navigate. Many activities for young children.
We visit Discovery Place Kids – Huntersville at least once a week, and it has become one of our favorite places to go as a family. Our 2-year-old son absolutely loves it—especially the train section! He could spend hours there. What makes this place so special is how many different play areas there are for kids.
Awesome for kids under 8 years! It has 2 levels - lots of stimulating play structures, indoor playground, water play, legos, and play pretend areas ( super market, kitchen, farm, sea underwater, car mechanic etc). Huge creative arts & craft room, magic and lab experiment shoes throughout the day.
