We weren't planning on going to this museum. We were planning on going to the Nashville science center but it was closed. I'm so glad we went here. Interactive displays and lots of information, biblically based with science. If you're in the area I highly recommend you visiting. If you have time plan a trip here. You will not regret it. My whole family thoroughly enjoyed it.
Stacey RobertsThe “Back To School Bash” was a big hit with my nine-year-old son! He absolutely loved the Live Interactive Animal show the best. We’ve been here before, about a couple of years ago, and were REALLY pleased with the added exhibits downstairs (Wonder’s of Africa and Wonder’s of the Sea)! We plan to come again!!
ValleyalliMy 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 GrippLoved the scavenger hunt- forced my kids to really read through and absorb the information in each room. They were excited to earn rewards, and loved all of the hands on activities! The animals presentation at the back to school bash was also a huge hit.
Amanda BoderThis is a nice museum that’s fun for kids of all ages. We had fun here with my one year old.
Jeremy HarrisThe coffee touches my soul.
Lily TylerThis place is amazing! One of the best museums I’ve ever been to. There is so much to see, so much for the kids to do. Probably the most kid friendly museum 🙂 we are having the best time. This museum makes it interesting for all ages and a lot of fun ways to learn!
Abby ArcanoI was invited to a Pastor Appreciation Luncheon at the Wonder Center. I was not sure what to expect. To my amazement from the time I entered the property until I left. My experience was nothing short of amazing. The planetarium was breathtaking, and so surreal. The Tour was amazing. The museums were amazing. The Luncheon the food was delicious. If you are looking for something to do, a visit to Wonder Center Science Museum will be well worth the visit.
Frances WadeI took my grand children and we had the best time. Will definitely go back!
Kimberly SligerI've been to other museums let alone creation museums, including natural history and science; and this was by far the best informative experience in the time spent. Staff was especially helpful and nice every where we went. As I understand the growth is constantly improving but has already surpassed my expectations thanks to so much support that is occuring. Great job everyone!
Drew BaylessAn amazing facility, The staff are present but not intrusive. The exhibits are unlimited. This is for all ages!
Rachel DegenhartVery cool! Lots of space for all the kids and lots to do and look at.
Jessica SimmonsMe and my family had an AMAZING time here So much to see Need to come back and soon! Thank you DoMore615
Kendra WatsonSo many things to see and do for 5-11 year olds
James NoeVery cool experience. Lots of child friendly activities for young kids (ex: dinosaur dig, water area, legos, etc.) the dinosaur aspect was very cool as well. Not crowded during a weekday afternoon. Would definitely return.
Alyssa LechtanskiWell put together operation. Well presented science. Good children and adults.
William HunterGreat 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!
Natalie Harmongreat rainy day activity for my 7 year old and one month old!
graycen boneAwesome place! So grateful that it’s only five minutes from our house 😊
