An EXPERIENCE for ALL AGES!
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Wonders Center! We were extremely impressed with the quality and variety of the exhibits as well as how interactive it was for kids and adults. The planetarium was amazing and I especially liked the literary section . All of the staff were amazingly friendly and helpful and it was great to hear how Mr. David Reeves catapulted his childhood interests for anthropology and astronomy into what he is doing today for the glory of Yahweh! It was really a satisfying and fulfilling experience for our whole family! Highly recommended!
Brett GrippGreat turn out today!
Aprielle RajdlI took my grandkids and they loved the museum and planetarium. They enjoyed the scavenger hunt, hands on exhibits, and of course the large dinosaur as you walk in the building. We will be back!
BobMy kids raved about their experience here! The Africa exhibit was simply amazing!
Maricia AbercrombieGreat, kid friendly place! My kids love exploring and learning here with interactive games and videos! 🥰
Breanna BarkerWe absolutely love this place. All the new exhibits. And the dinosaur that walks
Samantha MooreGreat hidden gem for kids and parents alike! Some might find the heavy religious messaging surprising for a science museum as it is incorporated into every exhibit pretty heavily and, in some ways, a very anti-science mindset. Exhibits are a good size for kids to enjoy but also small enough that they don’t have to stay focused on one thing for too long. Biggest drawback is that I bought tickets online thinking it would save time upon arrival, but I still had to stand in line for wrist bands for over 15 minutes.
Sarah SharpVery interesting!
