  • Really loved the museum. Staff was super kind and helpful. Everything was cleaned. Plenty of bathrooms. My kids loved it. A great field trip for homeschooling. Also, really enjoyed the biblical views on everything. We visit many national parks and museums and most are worldly bases

  • If you like museums, have kids, and want a well priced and full day of exhibits and fun stuff for children especially, Ian't recommend the wonder center museum in dickson enough. incredible exhibits, stuff was put together and actually worked, not cluttered and they had programming and stuff everywhere. The staff were constantly interacting and talking rather than just posted up. And the one thing that was broken someone fixed immediately. The wildlife department especially was just insanely well done. Met with the woman who was over wildlife and you could tell they picked someone with passion rather than titles. I think a ton of our local museums should especially learn from this museum.

    We went for my 14 year old birthday today and it was amazing. There are 6 of us ages ranging from 9-37 and we all enjoyed it. We were there 1:30-5:00 and could have stayed a lot longer. We are Christians and trying to find something wholesome and truthful can be difficult in today's society. As we were about to leave the owner walked up to say hello and ask how we liked it -- thats rare I feel like and we appreciated it. We also got the see his sweet pup Topaz -- we will definitely be back. Planetarium and Tesla show is definitely worth the price. It was a bit pricey for us (family of 6) but in my opinion worth every penny. That level of knowledge of science and scripture is mind blowing.

    Visited with our grandchildren. This is a high quality experience that demonstrates how our faith in a creator and His Word are supported by science. A must for Christians & for anyone who seeks the truth.

    We had a great time. Loved the interaction displays for a 2 year old and all the information signs. Definitely want to come back with him and finish looking at everything but also want to come back for me to read everything.

  • The “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!!

    Loved 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.

  • 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 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.
