What parents say
Discovery place is a wonderful place to take kids! However, all ages can enjoy the activities. The activities are fun, interactive, and educational. There are many different types of centers, and you can move at your own leisure.
This was a very neat place we took our son over the winter, just to get out of the house. Our son is almost 2 and it was perfect, there was so much to see and do. It's all hands on and very interactive science things to learn from color, sound, weather, bees and magnets.
Great fun for the curious of all ages! We are building a community model railroad display to use for learning STEM and other things. The Rivet makerspace is attached and convenient for making parts!
What a great place to bring the kids! This place was very impressive. There were tons of different things for the kids to play with, not to mention learn from. My favorite was the dinosaur bone dig where you dug up assorted bones and matched them up with the correct dinosaur. We attended a birthday party here.
