We took our four-year-old and she had a great time. I found it fun and educational as well. It is worth doing once.

This is a fantastic place for the kids as there is so much for them to do. You can bring a lunch and there are tables inside to eat on. My husband and I bring the grandkids and just let them go and enjoy all of the different interactive exhibits.

The children enjoyed being able to touch and do! They really enjoyed pretending to be a weather anchor.

My kids love going to SciQuest. It's not a big children's museum. Make sure you check out their website to see if they have specials things going on!

Lots of hands on activities for the kids of all ages. New exibits periodically. Kids learn lots of things without realizing it. Each on of these kids museums are different. Also recommend Birmingham and Nashville kids museums.

I went my wife and our almost 2 year old toddler... He loved the "Under 7" house, with it's blocks and musical instrument buttons to push. He also LOVED the "Earthquake" bench, that shakes you back and forth. I had fun looking around too, but this is definitely a place for kids. There's a really neat exhibit called "Grossology" there...

I took my daughter during Armed Forces Appreciation Week in 2011. She thought it was a lot of fun....and who am I to argue with a Toddler? I will definitely return here....I think some things could use some refurbishment.....but I'm sure that will happen in time.

they might let the adults come in. The kind of place you'd expect in a city like Huntsville... the ultimate "techie" museum for kids... and it's "hands on"!!!
