My husband and I love taking our kids places that are not only fun but do have some educational value to them. Not that we never do anything just for fun...but COSI is a place that both of us went to as children and wanted to share it with them. We are now totally addicted! We bought 2 year memberships! You can go whenever you want for free, you get emails or mail about special members only things going on with the Museum also. You also get 20% off in the gift shop. IF you live anywhere near COSI, we live in Ashland, Ky and drive approx. 3 hours to Columbus, but it is so worth it. When we have school breaks we go, and end up only needing about $150 for gas and food. Then $25 when we get there to get into all the extra spots in the museum. If you can get to COSI and have never been, you need to go! It is an amazing and fun place to take your family!

We've had a membership at COSI for years. No matter what the kids' ages there is always tons of stuff to do. They can go back in time, go under the sea, play with water, lift a car with leverage, ride a centrifuge, learn about weather, build a kooky creation out of computer parts, and learn and try and experiment. The cafe is pretty eclectic, but expensive, with real food and junk food. The gift shop offers a mix of cheap junk, and some really fun and inventive toys/games. The restrooms are clean, and the staff is terrific. The IMAX movies are usually fascinating, and there is way too much to see and do in only one day! They also offer Girl and Boy Scout adventures, so check it out if you are a troop/den leader.

A wonderful place for adults and children. The exhibits are excellent. It's fun and also gives you an understanding about science. It makes learning fun.

COSI (Center of Science & Industry) is a great place to bring the kids on a saturday afternoon!! Although I miss the old building, the new building is so spacious and beautiful. It's spaciousness can almost be perceived as there not being a heck of a lot to see there, but it's not quite that way. I have been in museums that you can spend a lot longer in, though. Where else can you go to see rats play basketball??

Only been there once and I probably will go one more time when are kids are old enough. There is so much potential unused at COSI that I really am hoping this will get better. Overall though it was a fun day and is definetely more for families than couples. Check it out for yourself and let us know what you think!

COSI is a really neat place to take kids. Unfortunately they don't have the funding that they need so they did shut down some things and have shortened hours. I used to go here when I was in school, before it moved to this location, and I think that it lost a lot of the educational things that they used to have. It is still though a great time for kids, but I think it's a little more entertainment than educational.

a very interesting place that is a must if you have kids in elementary school. a great learning experience that kids dont mind as everything is done in a fun atmosphere. exspensive admission but teachers get in free and they do offer yearly memberships. I enjoy taking people here from out of town becuase it does tend to be different from the other science based museums that are scattered throughout the country and kids and adults seem to enjoy something in the place at all times despite what the current exhibit might be.

COSI is a great place to take people of all ages. The exhibits have something for everyone. It's always a fun place for kids to go on a field trip, but I've found that I even enjoy going as an adult. Since moving to the new location on West Broad St., COSI has going through some growing pains. They've raised prices, and started seperating admission (i.e. charging admission multiple times depending on the exhibits you want to see). In my opinion, the move has not been a positive change for COSI. While it is still a great place to visit, I do not go as often.

I have to say, that as an adult, I much prefered Cosi, before they moved to their new location. However, this one is just as good in my books. And the new Titanic exhibit is just awsome! My kids enjoy the exhibits, and aatractions, and they think they are so col when they can lift that big car all by themselves. The ticket prices and kind of high, but well worth it for a day of fun. I also enjoy the Big movie screen that is inside, however that does cost extra!
