Great Place to bring the kids. Lots of stuff to do and friendly staff . Very random stuff and no where to buy food
Take your kids for an educational trip to this interactive museum . Big play ground on site or pretend you work for a store, garage or courthouse . There is a little "zoo " upstairs also.
Lots of exhibits to explore, a play area for children and a small lunchroom upstairs. A room for animals here too.
We like going here, but they need to change more on regular basis. It gets old to do the same things again and again. The attractions also look worn now. we would come more if they had food.
It’s not at the high end of children’s museums that we’ve visited but far from the bottom. Pretty good variety of exhibits to keep children busy and learn while doing so.
Museum recently was awarded a 4 yr NASA grant to build an Exoplanets Exploration exhibit . An exoplanet (extrasolar planet) is a planet outside the solar system. As of today, 516+ are known to exist. Read more
Please clean up after using the activity areas. It's no fun to have to pick up items from the floor in the grocery or pizza making before you can even play!
Wonderful place to visit. My gson's loved the variety of displays and learning tools, etc

Its shitty, cost to much for not a lot
what a great place if you are interested in cars, this is a must see if you are in the Dayton area, an old dealership that was turned into a museum and they have a great library in the back - E B
Had a great time at AleFeast here on Saturday March 2nd, 2013. An awesome event. - Lisa Seibert
Love it, they even have a place for the young-one's to go nuts if they haven't changed it up. My daughter had a great time. - Danny Howard
Beautiful places to take pictures. One of the most underrated places in the area. - Morgan Perryman
Great experience. Definitely a place to visit if in Dayton, Ohio. Several hangars of full size planes, drones and other artifacts from the history of the Air Force. Worth seeing and no charge to see! - AndrewGroveSanAntonio Grove
