User Reviews of Detroit Science Center

Yelp.com Review - by D'Anne W.

5.0 of 5 stars. A great place to bring kids. And the IMAX theater is a real IMAX, not the "fake" IMAX. Or whatever.

4.0 of 5 stars. This hands-on museum caters to families with a variety of active exhibits. This is THE museum for kids in metro Detroit. The saving grace for adults is the museum's dome IMAX theater that takes a huge...

lilaguide | Science really IS fun!

I used to go here when there were nothing but tiny, boring exhibits for kids on the second floor. Like, "How Bubbles are Made" with a tub of dishsoap and some hoolahoops in the middle of the room. Now it is...

lilaguide | Kids Town

They have a area called Kids Town for ages 0-5. It is very age appropriate for Toddlers. My DS loved it. They can play dress up, work on a computer dance on a stage, etc.

This is a great place for elementary age kids. Tons of hands on activities for exploration. The older kids were bored since this is geared toward a younger age group. We didn't really use the play area since...

This is a great place to take your kids. Lots of activities. The kids can actually interact with a lot of projects going on. The cost of going isn't that much and you can have a great day with your family.
