Very cool place for the whole family
Hope BrileyThe kids had a great time!
Shannon ArmsHer 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 SpragueThe facility was well maintained , and was very educational 😊
LunarexpressthirtyLoved 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.
Amanda BoderThe “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!!
ValleyalliWe 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.
Stacey RobertsPerfect way to kick off our science exploration for the year!
Jennifer DawnI took my grand children and we had the best time. Will definitely go back!
Kimberly SligerThe coffee touches my soul.
Lily TylerThe coffee is amazing!!!!!!
Jessica HallI 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!
BobGreat place for little kids. Hands on areas and my son loved the Dino exploration area!
Chania HenryWonderful for all ages.
John EichmanMy kids raved about their experience here! The Africa exhibit was simply amazing!
Maricia AbercrombieWonders Center is such a great family adventure for all ages!
Kaitlin MorganNice gift shop, great cashier, very helpful.
Ruth NordanThis is a nice museum that’s fun for kids of all ages. We had fun here with my one year old.
Jeremy HarrisWow! 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 HessAwesome place! So grateful that it’s only five minutes from our house 😊
J. AllenI've been to other museums let alone creation museums, including natural history and science; and this was by far the best informative experience in the time spent. Staff was especially helpful and nice every where we went. As I understand the growth is constantly improving but has already surpassed my expectations thanks to so much support that is occuring. Great job everyone!
Drew BaylessVery awesome experience, lots of things to see and do
FishtailWe absolutely love this place. All the new exhibits. And the dinosaur that walks
Samantha MooreIt was the best. The kids loved it
Jessica LynnThe littles had a great time!
Jennifer DennisWe 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.
Brittany GibsonFar exceeded my expectations. I cannot wait until I can go again.
John AndrewsIf 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.
Dedra Irwingreat rainy day activity for my 7 year old and one month old!
graycen boneVery Educational place. It was so much fun. Good place for the kids learn. Will tell my friends to visit there
