What parents highlight
“It's clean, including crews that walk around whose job is literally just to put stuff back where it goes.”
“I think toddlers to pre-teens can have a great time here playing and learning.”
What parents say
Took my 4yr old son here. This is a great place for kids and families. Lots of hands on activities for kids to express their imagination. The price is perfect. Staff was very helpful. All the activities were clean and functional. We had a great time.
We had a fantastic time at the Discovery Center today! While it is geared towards younger kids, my 8 year old daughter & 11 year old son had a blast! We spent a good 2.5/3 hours there! It is SO clean! They especially loved the Art room, that was actually a highlight to the day.
I spent the day here with my family and we had a blast. The museum kept my 7 year old and 5 year old busy for hours. There's no cafe, but they allowed us to do our own picnic lunch at the picnic tables. Most of the exhibits were in good working order.
We traveled over from Mobile, AL because we’ve heard such great things. We were not disappointed. We came about 2pm on a Saturday and it was perfect. We had most of the place to ourselves. It was nice and clean. My 5 year old loved everything inside. Then we headed to the splash pad. We will be back for sure.
Bringing a toddler?
Reviews and the venue's own info mention a dedicated toddler area or toddler times at Lynn Meadows Discovery Center — a separate space where little ones can play without dodging big kids.
