Many hands-on exhibits ... from dinosaurs to computers, earth science to spaceships. The Omnimax theater is like IMAX on steroids. My kids want to go every time we go to STL.

Parking was 12.00, but the museum is free. But you can park at the planetarium for free and walk. We went for the STAR TREK exhibit which did cost 13.00, but it was great. Love the dinosaur exhibit. This place is a lot of fun.
This isn't just for kids. I LOVE bringing kids here but I also love exploring the place myself!
Great place to take the kids for a few hours. Plenty of entertaining things for the kids to get thier minds working and having a good time. There are even things that make the parents get thier minds working as well!

That Friday night, the Science Center stayed open until about midnight. There was a costume contest, free public viewing of the moon at the planetarium, a free movie showing at IMAX, and food...

We took our 5 year old Grandson to this and was absolutely blown away. We also visited the IMAX Theatre and watched Underwater World. There is no cost to enter the center but they do have charges depending on what you want to do once inside. We found it very interesting and did purchase tickets for a couple of the...
