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.
Marsha LotridgeVery informative. I love how it's always changing and adding exhibits. There's so much to learn!
Julie SenecalVerily, the Wonder Centers Museum didst enchant mine senses from the moment I crossed its threshold. Each hall is crafted with such care that one might believe the very walls whisper tales of ages past. Yet of all its marvels, none did stir my spirit so greatly as the Crystal Room.
Sam ByrdHad a great time with our grandchildren. Lots of opportunity to explain and to wonder at the majesty of our God and His creation!
Bradley RudgeVery 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 LechtanskiVery interesting!
Natalie HarmonThe littles had a great time!
Jennifer DennisGreat place for the whole family. Relaxed atmosphere for everyone with engaging and interacted exhibits for all ages from toddler to adult
Nathan GilleyFar exceeded my expectations. I cannot wait until I can go again.
John AndrewsI took my grand children and we had the best time. Will definitely go back!
Kimberly SligerGreat 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.
Dave KingI 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!
BobNice gift shop, great cashier, very helpful.
Ruth NordanWow! I think it should be a requirement for all school age children to go through this Wonder Center and Science Museum. It is clear that there is a creator and He wants a relationship with us. From the smallest ant to the Largest mammal, God’s glory is revealed! Go, take your kids, take your grandkids and support this amazing place!
Kyle Hessexcellent 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.
Lisa PellechioVery welcoming! Great job on the collections and displays. A lot of hands-on activities. We plan to visit the newly opened aquarium soon.

Brittani ThorsonAmazing museum with incredible exhibits that also glorify all of Gods creations. This is a must see location on your visit to the Nashville area.
Tyler CampbellI 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 Wadegreat rainy day activity for my 7 year old and one month old!
graycen boneThe “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!!
ValleyalliThe 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!
