Going here is just like being back in the Science Lab at your school. There are so many interactive displays to play with (and it’s not just for the kids to play with!) and basically there is something for all your family members to get interested in.

Also, all the displays are very informative where you can learn how things work or operate. And better still, it is free admission for all the family.

Probably the greatest section is the IMAX 3D cinema which is a real experience as it shows you a virtual 3D movie which makes you feel like you are the person there in the movie at the time. So as they jump off a cliff on a parachute, you actually feel like you are doing it.

The only advice I was given when I went was to take your own refreshments because the cost of refreshments inside is very expensive.

The Science museum is free to visit and is vast. We went in early June primarily to see the Pixar exhibit which was fee paying.

We then spent a few hours getting a taste of the rest of the museum. You can never pack the entire museum in one visit.

The basement has fun activities for younger children, and our kids had a great time.

We then visited some of the exhibits regarding the development of flight and some models of the early trains. You can see the the Stephenson's Rocket, the world's first train.

If you have children then this is an opportunity for them to see science come alive.
