FREE for Bank of America card holders on the first weekend of the month (except Sundays) museums.bankofamerica
I have been wanting to go, but didn't like the price $13 Adult, $10 Child plus $4 parking so I have waiting for a good deal.
I would not recommend this place for toddlers. This is a place for 6 and up. A child needs to be able to read and comprehend or would loose interest.
My toddler enjoyed the 4D Turtle Movie, the Cloud Ring, Tornado, Pinwall, the Magnetic Pipes, oh and playing volleyball with mom and dad.
The negatives I have are: Grossology exhibit was really loud and some items weren't working. The employees who just stand around or sit at a table and don't engage the kids with the exception of the Hockey - he was very kind and enthusiastic with my son. After 1pm it was really crowded. The Hockey section is not really science and it was a little too much.
I don't recommend purchasing the Dino-Quest. - You can still walk through there.
When you go...cause of course you still want to check out on your own...go early, take lunch and eat in the Taco Bell patio in the museum or at dino-quest. If you go in the afternoon save yourself $4 and park at the mall across the street...you will have to make the walk anyways. And look for a good deal like Groupon.
Last peace of advise is engage with your kids don't just set them free (this isn't Chuck E Cheese its a MUSEUM). Teach them to take turns and be patient waiting for an exhibit.
