We bought a groupon for a summer pass this year because my son had gone on a field trip with his class and loved it. I have to say that it's pretty amazing and I love how hands on everything is. They have an area where you can experience what seemed to be five minutes of different kinds of weather. I think that was the kids favorite. We also purchased extra tickets for the bug exhibit that they had going on. Quite honestly I felt like I wasted my money. It's a small room with giant bug replicas and some real bugs in a case. It would have been cool to have some movies or hands on stuff to keep the kids attention. Overall this was a fun family excursion, don't know that we will be back for a while, but it was fun.
