There are tons of interactive exhibits including water play, climbing structures, pretend play areas, and building activities--that kept my toddler engaged the entire time. One of the highlights for us was the special area just for ages 0-4. It's such a thoughtful addition because it gives younger children their own safe space to crawl, climb, and play without being overwhelmed by the bigger kids. My toddler loved it, and as a parent, I appreciated that it was clean, well-designed, and developmentally appropriate. The superspace jumbo magnets were another hit amongst kids and adults alike. The parents got so invested into it and were building tunnels for the kiddos. Great fun for us too! Overall the space is very thoughtfully designed, and you can tell the staff really care about creating an engaging environment. They have a new craft activity everyday as well. Everything felt safe, clean, and inviting. It's easy to spend a few hours here without the kids getting bored. Another bonus is that the museum is in a great spot--there are a few restaurants within a block or two, which made it perfect to grab lunch right after all the fun.

They have a little food court inside of this museum and there is a parking garage that connects right to the museum as well. There is definitely a wide variety of things to learn and see here. I feel like just one day at the museum was not even enough. They do offer memberships and I can see why lol. This museum is definitely a place kids will want to go back to. One of my favorite parts of the museum was the brain area where they have a human brain and someone that explains all about it. I just thought it was pretty cool that they had a human brain on display. They even had exhibits that I did not get to see, simply because there was just not enough time in one day like I said. Highly recommend for a rainy day activity or a fun play date!

We watch Super Dogs - it wasn't our first choice but the Space one was already all booked out so we chose this and it was awesome! Some of the cinematography was absolutely breathtaking- they filmed this in different parts of the world and got incredible footage - likely by drone filming. They showed different dogs and their stories. Overall it was a great movie. We could sit where we wanted - no assigned seats for this show. Initially we sat high up and these seats are at a steep incline so we decided to move further down. Staff was friendly and helpful. The museum interior is nice and has these color coded wings. There is a cafe too although we've never tried it. Parking - this time we parked in the museum garage itself to save time and it was $18 for up to 2 hours which was sufficient for us as the movie was only about 90 minutes. We have in the past managed to find some street meter parking nearby and walk a bit was great too. There are restrooms on the upper floor too which was convenient. Overall a good experience! Great place to go for everyone in the family.

The museum blends science, natural and play. A second museum building opened in 1987. After an $8.8M expansion and renovation, the museum reopened as a single-building museum in March 2018. A 550 -square-foot tree house and accessible nature playscape were also added to the campus in July 2016. The current museum now has twice the exhibit space of the original museum and includes significant galleries for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) experiences including water, air, tinkering, design, engineering, early brain development, math, light and color, and sound. My family and I recently visited the Discovery Museum while we were visiting the area. We visited a local brewery for lunch and my wife and I were interested to see if there was a place nearby that we could take our sons. The museum came highly recommended. We're glad that we heard about it because we all had a blast. The whole campus was beautiful! There are a variety of different interactive exhibits devoted to topics such as math, airplay, water, music & sound, illusions, simple machines, light & color, and Leonardo da Vinci. My sons never wanted to leave. After exploring the museum, we all headed outside to explore the Discovery Woods. My sons really liked checking out the tree house, the nature playscape, Adventure Hill, the slap-a-phone, the outdoor da Vinci exhibits, and Bessie the Dinosaur. Overall we had an excellent experience at the Discovery Museum and we highly recommend it to families who are visiting the area!

I've seen pictures and a video marketing promo and it looked like a good time. Purchased tickets on line for three adults took a screen shot of my receipt and Boston bound we went. Arrived earlier than anticipated so walked Fanuiel Hall and the area. Too early so many things were not open at 9a on a Saturday. The doors opened at 10a. While waiting I attempted to open the app needed to get your tickets and lo and behold the app crashes before we even get through the door. Thank God I took a screen shot of the receipt. Doors open and three families ahead of us go I and get checked in. Then it was our turn we were an hour early, no problem. The app crashed and I can't get my tickets, no problem reservations under our name! Done! Got our hands stamped and off we went. First exhibit was the moving eyes, then the crooked room then the hotel plunge. That closed when it was our turn, they needed to wash the floor. No problem we've got so much more ahead of us. The exhibits are for all ages although I think younger minds might not fully what is going on. A woman with her three children had a three year old who hated it. Then liked the more hands on wooden puzzles. There are optical illusions you simply spin or slide. Illusions where staff help you create an illusion to bring home. There was one exhibit that had both my guys, grown adults, saying let's do it again, let's do it again!! I cannot recommend this venue enough. Not local? Plan a trip here, located in Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market. Come early because the longer it is open the more people come through. Every hour on the hour.

We bought tickets online for the 9AM-12PM block and some of the more popular rooms did start to get busy but you could easily go to another room if it was crowded. I liked that there were "trashcans" for toys that needed to be cleaned to prevent the spreading of germs. Bathrooms had step stools and toilet seats for kids which was great to see. There was a little room for kids to have their snacks as well. Check out the events calendar online to see if there are any special visitors/groups. The day we went there were visitors that brought crabs/hermit crabs and a project to make robo crabs. I do wish they had a water fountain or water filling station.

Looking for a speakeasy while in Montreal? We've got you covered! Clandestino is a tequila bar hidden beneath the hopping restaurant upstairs. Head through the hidden door, into a hallway and down some very dark stairs and you'll find yourself an intimate spot for some tequila cocktails. We both loved our drinks. CL got a couple but his favorite was the Ocho which had cacao and mole, to make for a "damn good" cocktail. I had the Passion Amarga, which was also delicious. We loved the vibe, it felt like being in a friends living room, with the furniture and the music was at a perfect level. The service was wonderful. The staff really helped us with picking out the perfect cocktails. Stop in here if you are in the area, you won't be disappointed! Lentz_explore

So much in this museum I don't think you could possible see the whole place in one day. We spent 4-5 hours here and may have seen 50%. I so wish I lived closer so I could take it all in over several visits. The mineral and rocks area especially drew lots of my attention and I spent way too much time there and slowed us down a good bit. It's was so freaking cool though! Giant wads of gold and precious metals everywhere. Things I have never seen. Wonderful things! Also.... They have dinosaurs and so many cool things. Glass flowers, ancient artifacts, rare finds from around the world all housed in the historic University of Harvard campus. Check out my pics. I even have one where I am the last link in the evolutionary chain, LOL. Totally worth a trip here if you can. So many wonderful things to see!! '26 - 29

It's not, strictly designed for young children. *Please read this review if you are an adult with no kids looking to attend this museum* Online this looked super fun and showed young adults in the sprinkle pool and walking around the facility. When we went, it was 100% adults with young kids. Not 14 or 10 year olds, but YOUNG kids. We really felt out of placed and a bit embarrassed that we spent money on these tickets as 30 year olds and this was not designed for us. Regardless, we tried to make the best of it. It's a really cool place. Lots of history of ice cream, fun all you can eat ice cream. Again, was disappointed at the false advertising because online it showed a bunch of different ice cream styles you could get (hot dogs in ice cream format, hamburgers, etc) and none of that was available. Let alone the flavors were limited. The games were cool, we played them all and stepped aside when a child came up to let them have their turn. Cleanliness seemed to be lacking too. It's an ice cream place so it can get messy, but everything we touched seemed sticky, which was concerning. If there's an adults-only time frame, we missed the memo. But when we filled out the survey for a certain amount of $$$ back, we were NOT granted any refund. Again with false advertising or not following through with a promise.
