Absolutely love this museum! 2nd time going and would go a 3rd time. It's large, geared to ages young and old. The sensory areas are amazing! I love all the rides and my daughter's enjoy every time they go!

We decided we needed somewhere air conditioned to kill half a day before our cruise ship boarded. Two adults in our own and we lived this place - which is mostly meant for children. The exhibits were interesting and we highly recommend taking in an IMAX show.

We bought our souther Florida pass here and spent a few hours exploring. We watched an imax movie about dinosaurs, and did the playroom area, but that we decided was for younger kids if say 6 and below. There were a couple exhibits that were down, but otherwise a great place to visit. We got there on a weekday in the summer and didn’t expect too many kids but there were a couple summer school programs visiting. Once the morning group left an afternoon group arrived. The center has the capacity to handle a bunch of kids though so there was no issue.

We were disappointed that most exhibits were closed, or non-functional. It was very overcrowded because of that. I tried to ask the admissions staff on how to get a refund but the only answer I received was that they were sorry. We paid $50+ for 2 adults and a 16 month old child. There was one exhibit open but we were told it was at capacity and we could try in an hour, we came back after one hour to be told it is at capacity and it will be open to all at 4:30pm (30 minutes before closing). We were able to get in at 4:35pm but we were surprised that they started asking people to leave at 4:45pm because they were closing!

Fantastic Museum for little kids to young teens! The otters would swim up each time we went to the window. There are so many areas to explore and hands-on learning! We will be going back in 2 days! I'm so happy we found this place on our vacation!
