We took our 3 boys age 7, 8, and 9 and our nephew age 6. They absolutely loved it. Every time we tured a corner the boys we saying "wow cool look at that". My partner and I both thought it was quite good also. The best part of all was the kids were free :)

I went there with my husband, and we enjoyed every bit of it. If you are interested in science, space and love trying everything, pushing buttons and experimenting, then you definitely have to visit this museum.
