The permanent exhibits at the Science Museum are primarily for children. Everything is presented at a very basic level, and many exhibits are interactive. Adults will find little to enjoy, but the dinosaur fossils are interesting. There are however, visiting exhibits, such as bodyworks, that are very much for adults, so it pays to see what is on exhibit in... more

The SMM is an incrediably amazing place to see! We visit it yearly and can spend a day there each time. (The first time I think we spent 2 days) It is a great educational (yet fun) experience for kids of all ages. The 3D show and omnitheater are a must see. They change certain exhibits a few times a... more
