Singapore Science Centre Reviews

It is great and I recommend visiting even if you are not a tourist.

Nice science exhibits. very eductional for young children

Be sure to catch the Tesla demonstration at noon. It's an experience not to be missed!

Don't come. Not worth to spend money in traffic and tticket.

On their website they listed individual tickets were priced at $6 for just the science center. When we arrived they said individual tickets were not available and forced a package of 5 attractions which we were not interested in and at $33 per person. My 10 year old cousin and I would have amounted to $66 and my husband who is on an ep would have had to pay $40+ which would have been over a hundred dollars. We left and went to the bird park instead. Much more worth it.

It is nice experience.. your kids will learn so many things..

Very interactive and informative esp on climate change

Wonderful place to bring the kids on the weekend. Educational and entertaining for the children. Better than wasting money on entertainment with zero educational value.

Highlight was certainly the butterfly garden, which was very well maintained with loads of butterfly species.

Downside was that some of the exhibits are poorly maintained, especially the defence exhibits. Not that children need to see military science anyway but if there's an exhibit on it, it should be maintained at the very least.

Great but slightly dated now
Dino quest was xool

Nice atmosphere, full of activities, very kid friendly. I found it very interesting.

Educational exhibitions, kinetic garden with no entrance fee, and kids facilities like wet playground, kids stop (with admission charges) etc. Good family outing experience

Love the exhibits but they're all getting a little old! Some have been there for eons. Nevertheless an amazing place for kids to learn! Kids Stop is excellent

So many hands-on science exhibits! You can actually volunteer to sit in a Faraday Cage and see their Tesla Coil up close!

More like an abandoned centre. Not much to see. Took my 4 year old there and it was so dissapointing.

My daughter and I loved this museum, we spent the full day there

Great place for young kids to learn science through the interesting exhibits

Although it is mostly geared towards younger children from 5-8, there are a few exibits that are interesting to people of all ages.

Love this place so much, my kids especially love KidStop! Educational indoor playground the Science centre itself has a water playground, so bring along their wetsuit. we also like omni theatre even tho a bit more expensive. The only downside is the snow city, which is quite old and rundown

Great for kids and it's not boring at all! There is even a 3d dome theater there. Interesting

Interesting place to visit...learn new things about science. Things to buy is expensive but worth it.

Nice place with vast area but often perceived as a place for younger students. More work could be done to draw older teens and younger adults interest in science and technology.

Suitable for children who love to explore and explore scientific phenomena, ages 8-12 years old

Far from everything else but nice to visit when there is new exhibits

Great museum, very entertaining and educational for children. My five year old loved it

Wonderful half day of activities for kids. Great way to occupy time and introduce children to science concepts.

Great for children . Butterfly display disappointing

Nice place to hang out with children.
Omni-Theatre is not my favour, kids are falling sleep.

A fun and learning place for Science
Suitable to go with family

There are a lot of knowledge you can learn there as there are many of interaction experiment/machines for you. There will be different events at different times too! Do check out their website to check out any events going on there.

Fun place to spend a day with... I went with my parents and they loved it

Excellent display, much better then the science centre back at home. Lots of stuff for the kids to do.

Fun place to explore science! Hands on and educational. The super friendly staff are the best! Often updating their exhibits. Something for everyone. Adults will find the Earth Science exhibit more informative, while kids will love the fire tornado and tesla coil shows.

Superb place, all students must be visit once , I like much more this place , one whole day not enough for visit

Suitable for students and children to experience common sense, entertainment, dining, and convenient transportation.

gret for education. good for children and adult. nice environment. friendly staff. mc donald is inside the building. water work wont work if rainy outside. the most interactive exhibition is PHOBIA, learn about earth, energy, body, electricity, global warming, etc.

It ia a good 3.5 million Volt experiance. New Robot Platform is very intersting.
Itbis a good place to learn about science. To learn science at works

So this is quite an amazing place to take your kids for a Sunday family hang outs. They have amazing exhibitions which keep coming up and quite an interactive set up of experiemnts for kids to enjoy.

Great place for kids. Make sure you get there in the morning. I visit the place around 12.30 and there are some exhibit we haven't cover.

Bad experience as some facilities unable to use and the attitude of some visitors are so bad

Must be in every high school childs to do list. Need 2 or 3 days to view everything satisfactorily. Young kids may find it boring.
90s kids(present day adults) will probably enjoy the most!

Awesome need all day plus
Facts for all ages

A theme park dedicated to the name of science! Perfect for school tours, teaching groups of kids science through fun and games!

Good experience but extremely expensive for foreigners. $70 for a family of four to go into KidSTOP is excessive.

Lots of activities there. Get to know more about science.

Needs a full day (if not more) to really go through all the exhibits!

Very fun.the mirror maze was very very fun.it is also free on weekdays so with your friends or family

Been there several times as a child and as a parent. Every trip was enjoyable and fun. Learning about science in a fun setting really helps to expand the curious mind. Kudos to the Science Centre for bringing in new exhibits from time to time.

It was fun, great for children because of all the hands-on activity.

Excellent learning and fun experience for kids. Reasonably priced entry tickets. Great science exhibits. Would recommend to all with kids well worth a trip

I enjoyed most of my time there so i had wanted to give 5 stars. That was when i went to the Butterflies Up Close exhibition and instantly changed my mind because of a few things:
1. The staff were rude.They reprimanded those who had butterflies on them because the staff thought the children had purposefully forced the butterflies on them. In truth,the butterflies landed on the children by themselves.Some unlucky chlidren had butterflies in unnatural places (e.g. the palm) and recieved an unjust scolding from the staff. To make matters worst, the staff came up with the excuse of the children disturbing the butterflies while the butterflies ate.
2. The staff mistreated the butterflies. Okay, you don't want children touching the butterflies. Its a bit unreasonable but since the staff' other excuse was that the butterflies would be hurt, they also have to take care of the butterflies. One of the staff there grabbed a butterfly by the wings and tossed it aside,while reprimanding the child who had the butterfly on her finger. Surely the staff knew better than to grab a butterfly by the wings? I mean, the damage caused to the butterfly would be greater. They blame innocent children under the pretence that they don't want the butterflies to get hurt. But what did they do? Cause more damage.
I hope the management will look into this matter and make the neccesary changes in the staff attitude. Although maybe many of you disagree with what i am saying now, consider this:Science centre is a tourist attraction in Singapore,and the Butterflies Up Close attraction recieves lots of vistors and publicity. Hence, many people(tourist and locals alike)would go there. Now let me ask you this.After what the staff did,would the tourist's immpression of Singapore be good? Would they think Singapore is a wonderful country?Or would they go home with the thought:Singapore is unreasonable and fierce to children?
Let me give you a true example.A tourist has 2 children with her and she comes into this exhibition. After seeing the attitude of the staff, she reprimanded the staff. This shows that she does not feel happy about the attraction.Furthermore,the staff did not apologise. Is this what parents want their children to learn?To learn to become someone who does not apologise? No.Before the matter gets worse, i implore the management to teach the staff some manners. Thank you

Wow
..children will enjoy ..lot of interactive experiments...funny mirrors...must visit omni theatre for 360 degree movie abt our universe...

Fantastic varieties both indoor and outdoor cater for 0-12

Great place for family with a Snow city centre next door

Excellent workshops to attend..especially never knew elaborated Chemistry of coffee before.

nice artifacts and shows.... one visit is not enough

Minimum 4 hours per visit. A lot of exhibits. There were adults without children. With children you need to go for a full day. It will appeal to both children and adults.

It's an ideal place for science lovers. It would be a perfect place to spend a whole day educating ourselves in a much preferable way.
