An EXPERIENCE for ALL AGES!
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.
Great turn out today!
Great 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.
Very interesting!
This was our first time visiting but definitely not our last! This museum is amazing and has so many cool exhibits. I love that there’s a lot of hands on experiences for all ages. Bring your kids and have a fun filled day!
Homeschool mom's alert this is a great place for you to be able to take your children. I highly recommend recommended as a former homeschool mom.
I 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.
Very Educational place. It was so much fun. Good place for the kids learn. Will tell my friends to visit there
The coffee touches my soul.
We had a blast at the wonder science center. It was a full day of learning and fun for all my kids.
The littles had a great time!
I took my grand children and we had the best time. Will definitely go back!
I 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!
Great, kid friendly place! My kids love exploring and learning here with interactive games and videos! 🥰
Amazing museum with incredible exhibits that also glorify all of Gods creations. This is a must see location on your visit to the Nashville area.
Great place for little kids. Hands on areas and my son loved the Dino exploration area!
excellent time. 3 adults 1 child (5) Everyone loved it. Much to see and learn. Coffee bar also! AND the observatory is a must see. Looking forward to going back.
Very welcoming! Great job on the collections and displays. A lot of hands-on activities. We plan to visit the newly opened aquarium soon.
The best!!! So blessed to have the Wonders Science Center and Museum in Dickson!! A true blessing!! We have a membership and come all the time. The new ocean exhibit is just amazing! Don't miss out!
It was the best. The kids loved it
Absolute best times for the kids. Great for teens and toddlers!
Love what David and his team is doing. Heb 11:1 says "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" David is making it possible for many Christians young and old "see" through faith, some of the evidence of God's masterpieces of creation. I really appreciate how this is a place I can bring my children and they get a biblical point of view and is faith based.
