    Great place for kids to have hands on experience while they are learning.

    This place was a huge disappointment and a total waste of money. Unless you want to sit and watch a movie for 45 minutes there is not much else to do for small children. In fact, most of the exhibits ( the very few on the tiny two floors) are designed so that small children aren't even tall enough to see them. If you think that you will see nice interactive exhibits about planets and the solar system - forget about it! Most of it is puzzles and a weird table with animal prints with matching fecal matter. How they have the audacity to call this run down, out of date space a "science center" is beyond me. For a University building - this should be a huge embarrassment!

    The kids showing was okay but everyone enjoyed the exhibits. Ended up spending more time than expected since we were all involved in the hands on brain teasers. And the “make your own solar system”was excellent.

    Great shows. Check the schedule on line and organize your visit accordingly. Different shows for different ages on the hour. Saw a kid show and all the kids about age 7-10 loved it. Also saw an excellent asteroid show for adults for only $3 more per person. Great glow in dark t-shirts for kids in gift shop. Mineral display in basement. Check out science section for elementary age kids. This is a small place but worth a visit. Park in Cherry Street lot about a block walk on other side of University Street. Free parking on weekends when there is no ball game.
