An EXPERIENCE for ALL AGES!
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.
So many things to see and do for 5-11 year olds
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.
I took my grand children and we had the best time. Will definitely go back!
So many fun things to do great for all ages
This is a nice museum that’s fun for kids of all ages. We had fun here with my one year old.
Wonderful for all ages.
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!
Very welcoming! Great job on the collections and displays. A lot of hands-on activities. We plan to visit the newly opened aquarium soon.
Excellent venue with exhibits for all ages!
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!
It was the best. The kids loved it
great rainy day activity for my 7 year old and one month old!
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.
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.
The coffee touches my soul.
Very awesome experience, lots of things to see and do
The littles had a great time!
We had a blast at the wonder science center. It was a full day of learning and fun for all my kids.
The kids had a great time!

Extremely kid friendly and clean facilities
This place was phenomenal! So many areas to explore! Biblically based truth! My sons had a great time and loved exploring. The Planetarium show & Tesla coil experience were awesome!
Very cool place for the whole family
We spent the whole day open to close. It was awesome and we had a wonderful time! There were lots of hands on activities for the kids. I need to go back on my own to see everything I missed! 5 stars we highly recommend!!!
Very cool! Lots of space for all the kids and lots to do and look at.
Great place to come bring your family and spend a few hours enjoying the wonderful of God’s creation. Also sign up and come enjoy the monthly unwrapped talks on a host of subjects.
