A MUST see for KIDS...Adults leave it behind
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/27/08
OVERVIEW: The Maryland Science Center is truly directed at children. There are no Exhibitions for adults and adults will find this exhibition (unless they have children with them) a waste of time and money. Occasionally there will be exhibitions (traveling exhibitions) on display that will cater to adults...but before buying tickets check to see ...
My boys, ages 6 and 9 loved this place. There is a lot to do for this age. We spent about 5 hours exploring the exhibits and I think that we covered about everything the boys wanted to see. We did see the 3-D Imax movie about sea monsters and we also saw the presentation about the constellations in the planetarium. The 3-D Imax movie was ...

Too much comuter-based "interactivity"
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/23/08
We heard so many great things about this center, but were actually rather disappointed when we went to see it. With some notable exceptions, they seem to rely rather heavily on computer-based "interactivity", rather than hands-on. When we were there, there were very few staff workers, and only two seemed eager to explain anything. ...

HECK YES!!!

I love this place. There is so much you can do and virtually everything is interactive. Its not just for kids. The science created a fun and entertaining way to educate you hands on. Would definetly recommend to visitors.
My daughter recently went to the Science Center for a school fieldtrip. We had a blast! So much to do and see, and even more to learn. The kids never got board. The staff is very friendly, and cater to the kids. Put it on your list of things to do!!!

Great place to explore for family
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/16/06
We visited the center last summer (2005) and after more than 3 hours of exploration, we still felt that we were only half way through. Most of the exhibitions are hands on - things that you could touch and experiment. My son was one and a half year old then and he had a great time - there are so many things for him to do at each floor. The only ...
