Natalie HarmonHomeschool 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.
Shelia ErwinOur first time at this Museum. It was wonderful! The people were so nice! We had a good time, and we will be back. Thank you.
Sherry MillerGreat turn out today!
Aprielle RajdlThe kids had a great time!
Shannon ArmsGreat 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 SharpGreat, kid friendly place! My kids love exploring and learning here with interactive games and videos! 🥰
Breanna BarkerVery welcoming! Great job on the collections and displays. A lot of hands-on activities. We plan to visit the newly opened aquarium soon.
phillip hicksFar exceeded my expectations. I cannot wait until I can go again.
John AndrewsEnjoyed everything very much. Informative and interesting. Especially like that creation is included in e erything. Will definitely recommend to others and will be going back!
Sheila MullinicksVery informative museum. Awesome Tesla coil!
Robert BLove 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.
MichaelMy kids raved about their experience here! The Africa exhibit was simply amazing!
Maricia AbercrombieThe coffee touches my soul.
Lily TylerThe 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!
PauletteHer family is quite large and this place was an amazing diversion and experience. The younger kids love the the play sand with the different layers of lighting and they especially loved the aquarium area where they could color their sea creatures and watch them come to life when they were scanned in to the interactive aquarium. The old and ancient manuscripts found in the Bible literature section was also amazing. We bought a season pass and plan to be back often.
Josh SpragueExtremely kid friendly and clean facilities
Ashley KuhnI 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 WadeThis 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!
Diana d'ArtenayWe 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.
