Although my daughter enjoyed Discovery Place, I found it woefully inadequate compared to similar…read moreinteractive children's museums that I've visited in other cities. Many of the "exhibits" barely deserve the title (resembling something closer to simple children's play areas), and roughly half of those that do appear to be out of commission. Furthermore, the entire building suffers from a sense of decay that feels like it's a couple cigarette burns in the carpet shy of becoming a crack house. That said, there are two specific offerings that save this review from single-star oblivion. First is the Tesla Coil show, which makes up for what it lacks in presentation (the video before the show is almost unbearable) with an admittedly cool display set to music. This comes at no extra cost, which is a nice change from other museums where shows like this typically require an additional ticket purchase. The second shining attribute is the mural work on the main wall, which displays a terrific woodland scene and clearly required a great deal of time and effort from a talented artist. If you believe those two experiences are worth the $5/person cost of entry, by all means, visit this museum. But if you are expecting anything - literally anything - else, you are going to leave disappointed.

Visited Texarkana because husband was on a business trip, so needed somewhere to take the kids in…read morethe day. The place was kind of old looking inside and kind of a mess when we walked. Some things looked like they could really use a deep clean/update. We were the only people in the place (other than the staff member and her kids). For $5 I feel like it was better than having my kids in a hotel room all day, but it just wasn't what I was expecting. The only cool thing about the place was the Tesla show (which I had to go tell a staff member it was 11:30 which was the time the door said they did the show) and cool mural on the wall.

Considering the staff consists almost entirely of what appear to be high school-aged kids, they…read moreprovide remarkably good, friendly service. They have always demonstrated exceptional patience, even with fussy youngsters, and never hesitate to take care of the adults' needs quickly and efficiently. That said, they don't have a lot to work with when it comes to the park itself. Although the go-kart track is in decent shape and the karts themselves run well, the rock climbing wall sits in direct sunlight all day, leaving it way too hot for the tiny hands that want to use it. Similarly, there isn't enough tree cover over the mini-golf area to combat the hot south Arkansas sun, which detracts from the experience immensely. Their saving graces seem to be the pricing, which is extraordinarily inexpensive, and the fact that they are essentially the only game in a town woefully deficient in fun activities for kids. All in all, I wouldn't warn you not to go, but I will say you should definitely bring some gloves and pack your sun screen.

There was a wide array of animals to see such as Scottish Highland cows, Kangaroos, Fallow Deer, Alpacas & our personal favorite was the Ring Tailed Lemurs & of course plenty of Alligators.

Nice place to spend a few hours with or without children.
