Absolutely bursting with children on a Saturday afternoon. I'm a solo traveler who was looking for a quiet time reading plaques, and got kids cutting ahead to use the exhibits before me. Ah well, still a great place to explore, perhaps on a weekday

This museum was amazing. The whole family had a great time. We spent the after and left at closing and was sad, because we all still wanted to play.😁 O, and we went on Saturday after Christmas.
