The date

Science World turns a rainy afternoon into permission to investigate everything. Explore hands-on exhibits, watch a live science show and compare your conclusions between experiments. Allow around two hours. Accidentally learning something is a perfectly respectable afternoon outcome.

Bringing the kids

Hands-on exhibits and live shows give everyone something to investigate, including the adults who were supposedly just supervising. Leave about two hours and follow whichever experiment wins the family vote. The button-pressing is educational; the debate over whose turn it is remains very much a domestic matter.

Daytime hands-on exhibits and live shows. Allow about two hours. Adult $37.50, ages 3-12 $25.50, ages 0-2 complimentary.
