Orlando Science Center Review

PCCA WM just finished its field trip to the Orlando Science Center. Our kiddos had an awesome time engaging in all the hands-on activities. Thank you, Ms. Emily!

This was my first I visited the OSC. There's great variety of fun things to do and see for both kids and adults. I showed up about an 1 1/2 hours before closing (wasn't aware of hrs of ops), next time I'll spend the whole day.

My 4 yr old son loves this place. Can easily blow a whole day here and still not get to everything. We purchased an annual family pass so we will be returning often.

Visited 3 years ago and loved it, but it is off-the-charts now! Amazing Hall of Heroes Exhibit and my girls could have spent all day in the Orange Grove!

Great place for kids who want to know more about science or kids who really like science.

Not sure why people are saying there isn t enough to do here. The photos attached here are only of one of the 5 levels (the telescope in the roof is level 6), AND there s also a 3D movie theatre on this level. Besides the areas pictured here, there are more activities than I care to name. Suffice it to say, my kids are 10 and 11. We ve been coming here every week for about two months, including yesterday, and even yesterday my kids were like we ve never been in here before! And we stay for hours every time. Also, we ve lived in many cities and have seen many children s museums, science centers, discovery zones, etc and this one is definitely top notch. Good job, y all!

So much fun and lots to see. They even have live gators and turtles.

Loved it
the Cinedome is a must

We had a discounted admission, I would'nt pay full price. In and out in 2 hours

If you're looking for a fun, educational, and inside attraction- the Orlando science center is the best one in Orlando. With kids or without, you'll find an entertaining way to spend your day here. Local parents- get a membership. It's the best place to let the kids run off some steam in FL rain or shine!

I have a question. I am from Saint Louis and the Science center there has an Omnimax theater where you watch movies about nature. It is like you are right there. Do you have something like this or is it just on a screen like at the movies?

Fun place. Great for kids who love science. Busy day due to spring break.

Really cool place for the whole family! 3D movies to watch, animal exhibits, and more!

This place is great for kids. They have a large section just for them, which has 6 sections. Plus everything is pretty hands on. Also, movies are included with the admission.

I love the Orlando Science Center. I've been coming here off and on since the early 2000s and it's only gotten better with age.

There's plenty for kids and adults alike to see and do, with a bunch of hands on activities and exhibits to keep everyone entertained.

From the animal exhibits at the bottom level, up through the air and space exhibits, past the fossil room, and up to the roof for the occasional gathering, there's something for everyone.

A good place to take the family and a fun way of learning

Floors and floors of interesting discoveries. Gingerbread house exhibit was overhyped. We walked through quickly then moved on.

Nothing really struck me as wow at this center.....a little on the boring side.

Such a fun place to take the kids. Had a blast watching them discover new things.

Had a fantastic time watching my son explore all the exhibits. Will definitely go back. And would definitely recommend the place.

Totally worth the trip, lots to see and do while you are there. We went on the first Wed of the month and it was very empty and had no wait for anything.

Absolutely wonderful and amazing place to visit. Something for everyone!

My kids and I loved the science center! It was awesome to see and learn about all the cool things they had! Highly recommend

Great place, lots to do my kids loved it 12, 10,7,5

This place is so fun and exciting.. My kids didn't want to leave.

Amazing experience for the whole family. And an amazing preschool center!

This is a great place to bring kids to explore science. But, it needs some upgrades.

So much to do with a lot of infor matiom for all the family. Loved trying the earthquake machine with building blocks ( I'd never make a good builder) and the tornado machine had me wondering how it worked!

It was lots of fun and very interactive for kids of all ages

Great kid learning experience. My kid loves this place!

Amazing place for toddlers and kids! We loved so much we became members...even with some areas closed due to COVID, we felt safe and were able to entertain my 4-year old for over 4 hours!

Just moved to Orlando area, and after our first visit here we easily decided to purchase the family annual membership. What a great indoor place to hang out with the kiddos on those hot days. There is a designated kids area, and most of the exhibits have at least some kid friendly features. There is lots to see, we usually only get to one or two areas during one visit. Forty-five minute 3-D or IMAX movies are included in admission.

Very interesting place to visit in Orlando. There are many things related to very cool science for adults and children ...

Wow! We recently took my two grand-daughters there and both the kids and we adults had a wonderful time! So many hands-on activities kept all four of us engaged all day. What a great place to spend the whole day! The only thing that could improve is a choice of food vendors there. The Subway was good, but we stood in line for 45 minutes to place our order. Still, we would go back again. The girls LOVED it!

It was a great experience! I went there this past weekend and was amazed by the displays. Highly recommend this place for families.

Great for younger kids but not for teens. My son had a blast

My wife and I go here quite a bit. It's a ton of fun for kids as well as adults.

I went here with seceral adults as well as my 10 year old son and my 9 year old niece for her birthday. They had a blast. The museum is set up so well and there are so many things to see and do. There is a fantastic dome theater and they have different craft classes for kids and adults. The kid zone is very large and split up into different age appropriate zones. We will definitely be going back because we still left many things unseen.

I love this place! I didn't know what to think at first but my kids had an absolute blast! They kept themselves busy almost all day on the exhibits. Didn't even get to see one of the movies they offer, oh well must take trip back!

Fantastic science center! Exhibits are kept up great and they bring in major new exhibits every few months. Movies included! Kids area if wonderful and newly built. Love the yearly Otronicon event! Animals are really cool on the bottom level too.

Love Love. If you love science then please give it a try. Your kid would enjoy and they offer hands-on learning experience in a number of things such as the the hurricane pod, earthquake, lots of dinosaurs, 3D movies, play area for ages 0-13 or even older, painting. I mean, you won't regret it, I just wished we'd went there for our entire trip rather than Universal Studios!

Excellent place for toddlers and children in general! Many hands on exhibits to explore and play with to learn.

Great place with 4 floors of activities for the kids of all ages. They have a great movie theater with 3D movies. Great fun.

Lots of fun things to do and see. Hands on exhibits for children of all ages.

cool place for kids. rotating exhibits make a yearly pass viable.

Always a great time and unique experience for everyone.

This place was great, we could have spent the whole day here with the kids and not done it all!

It has dinosaurs and an observatory. Really nice for kids and curious people. Very interesting

Makes for an awesome day with the kids. Subway inside for lunch and things to interest toddlers to adults. Always clean, and with the annual pass we can enjoy it a few hours and head home when the little humans run out of steam. :)

Fun for all ages with interesting exhibits. We enjoyed out visit and will be returning.

Seems like very little to do. Bring your kids though and they will be entertained for awhile. Overall not worth the ticket price. Dome theater was a lot of fun for the short time it last. Should warn a lot of the experiments are shut down due to covid.

Update: Should mention with Covid many places are trying to adapt with keeping as much open and keeping everyone safe. The Science Center has temperature checks before you are allowed in and everyone seemed to be wearing mask and very friendly. The issue I have is not with the limited selection due to Covid but most everything is geared toward very small kids. There should be a larger selection for older teens and even adults to do and take part in.

Interesting place where it can be a great teaching for children and adults

A good variety of fun exhibits that will entertain both young and old. Great mixture of education with recreation.
