The Discovery Science Place Review

A few exhibits need repair but mostly it was great. My kids love it.

Kids had a blast Lady at the counter was a lil rude but other than that it was great

This is a sweet place for kids and families. The outdoor mural is cool and the exhibits are well done.

Love this place! Fun and very educational for kids!

Interesting place with lots to do for children with lots of hands on exhibits. My 2 year old loves the place.

My kids (ages 3 and 6) love going here and never seem to get bored. There is a lot to enjoy for them. Very kid friendly! Price $6 each for kids, $8 for adults

Nice place to bring the fam. A few of the exhibits needed some maintenance, but overall it kept everyone entertained for a few hours and even snuck in some education

None of the touch screens in the NASA exhibit worked. The trains (main reason for the hour long drive) were tarp-covered, "down for maintenance". The "Feed the Bear" touch screens were broken. Many other features were broken across the whole place. My son had a really good time, but as a parent I was disappointed at the number things he could not fully experience.

Not a bad place. The Space exhibits need help, but a lot of their others are good. Some are very unique. I would go again with the kids.

The kids seemed to enjoy it. I was hoping for more interactive things.

Cute and educational for kids! Our 6 year old had a great time!

My 5, 8, and 11 year old children loved it. A great way to spend an afternoon.

Great for small children, under 7 but not much for the bigger ones

This is a fun place to take the kids. I just wish they were open longer. By the time the kids figure it out, it's time to go. I wish they were open longer.

My 13 month old was able to play and have fun for over an hour! Definitely worth it! Look on Groupon for better pricing. However, parking is horribly.

Excellent lessons covering a wide range of topics with fun hands on activities for kids of all ages. Some of the exhibits have been well worn and appeared in need of repair or replacement, but nothing that would pose any safety threat.

I'm a member so I've taken my kids here like a million times and here's my honest review.
From the perspective of an adult some aspects of the place may be a little underwhelming, and there are always lots of things that don't work the way they are supposed to and need to be fixed. But, my kids, (6 and under) absolutely love this place! It's their favorite place to go and makes a great place to take kids to play when the weather isn't suitable for outdoor activities. The place is perfect for younger kids, I can't really say if it would be worthwhile for kids past age 9-10 because I don't have kids that age.

It's kinda expensive if you're just going for one visit, but if you're local the way to go is to get a membership and visit often. If you bring your kids here several times a month it's well worth the annual membership. I don't think there's a better option for a place to bring your kids to play and learn here in Tyler.

Not worth the admission price. Very little within actually works. My daughter was extremely upset that nothing worked.

Think is the best place for your kids and adults to not only have a great time together. But it triggers insight, exploration and answers many questions we have. It's not just a place to visit once.

1 thing can impress a mind to think or expand or develop ideas that lead our life.

It's like a time machine. It has fossils to computers. It has hands on displays. And gives comprehensive information that anyone can understand.

Nice place for kids, everyone was cleaning all the time.

Amazing place! We played there all day and never got bored. Everything is kid friendly but adults can participate as well. I highly recommend for anyone with kids 12and under (but I know older kids would it enjoy it as well).

This was a great little place to take the kids. It's a lot of hands on fun. Kids can learn about space, explore different careers in a really fun and relatable way, explore a bat cave, and a number of other cool science related exhibits.

I have been going here since I was young. My children love Discovery Science and I enjoy watching them learn with excitement! The camp programs they offer are affordable.

Great place for the preschool crowd. Stimulate some science curiosity. Many areas are too artificial (stuffed fish in an aquarium) but magnets, perpetual motion, wind, fossils, and various business and workplace play makes a great afternoon

The staff was constantly through resetting the various play / learning areas. My four-year-old absolutely loves running around to interact with everything there.
We built a couple forts with giant blocks. Next door several kids ran a pretend diner and served us all the pretend food we could eat.
Great way to spend several hours.

Very good place to take the kiddos. They can run around and play and burn off energy while they learn.

Very large we spent 2.5 hours there with our 6 year old, this was the best of the 3 we have visited.

Great place for children and adults. Schedule a birthday party to really please a group of children. Donate money or exhibits! Yearly pass is totally worth the price!

A lot of cool things for the kids to see and play with. We went with tired 2 and 4 year olds and they had a blast. I actually don't know who had more fun; mommy and daddy or the kids. The magnetism section, dominos, and digging for fossils kept our kids engaged.

Great place for young and old alike. Special hands on experience for the children to partake in.

Highly recommend. We will come back with cousins and friends!!!

This place is a great place for kids to come learn and explore their imagination. I would recommend getting the year pass for the family. Not only does it give you free access to DSP, it also gives you access to over 250 museums all over the US. My kids want to go all of the time. Very nice staff and some of the exhibits change to give the children a better experience.

Nice reasonable price. I would say good for children under 13. Can keep them active for 4 hours before you hear "I'm board." Lots of hands on exibits. Looks small from outside but has plenty room inside. Seeing a young child's eyes light up is worth more than the price of admission

Never fails us. I've been taking my kids and grandchildren for the last 20 years!

My son had so much fun! 3 hours for an ADHD six year old is a long time, and he was not ready to leave. There was plenty of seating, too, for foot-weary adults to admire their playing progeny in comfort

Making a delivery in the early morning hrs. Aaron & Corey were awesome about us parking in the property & very fast unload.

I love it ... Great place to enjoy with your family

Great place to take young kids. We went with a 3 & 2 year old and they both had a great time. All indoors so foul weather is not an issue.

Went to the Human Bodies exposition and was really nice but wished they had more pieces like the one in Mexico. Really cool though.

We loved took my 15mth old grand son. He was able run around and enjoy although he couldn't understand some stuff he had a good time. He was asleep before I backed the car out the parking spot.

Great little museum for younger kids. My favorite thing about it are the different opportunities for all kinds of play! My preeschooler loves it!

Love this place. Kids can play all day in air conditioned comfort and not get bored. Staff is friendly and always cleaning, reorganizing so things are in place for kids to play. Had a birthday there last year, party room was spacious, kids had a great time. The price is fair also which puts it over the top.

It was a lot of fun for small kids. The shopping area was a big hit. There were plenty of creative things to do here. It was super busy and crowded. I am sure it stays that way because I can see how it would be fun to little kids. Very family friendly.

My greatgranddaughters love this place. Good place to go for hours of fun.

Took a 2, 4, 6 and 11 year old. We had a blast. So much to do and look at! We will be back everytime we are in tyler.

Awesome place to bring kids. I'm 26 with no kids, and I'm still intrigued by this place

It was really a nice place to take my children, and they loved it. The only issues were that it is extremely overpriced and the bathrooms were atrocious and smelled horrible.

A good place to take the family and spend a few hours.

It was an awesome place. Perfect for rainy days like today

My daughter had a blast there is something to do for all ages

Very fun family friendly facility to spark interest in learning of children and adults alike. The hands on exibits ensure fun learning for all ages. From being out of town i definitely wish i lived closer so my children could spend more time here.

The kids had fun, however, the items to play with are outdated and it is not a big place. The website makes it seem like their are more rooms for exploring. It was not a bad experience but I am somewhat disappointed.

Awesome place to spend the day. We spent 4 hours had our sack lunch with us (eating area provided) Kids had fun, fun, educational fun

Good place for kids to experience exhibits and for kids of all ages to enjoy the various interesting and informative theater presentations. Cute gift shop with various fun and educational selections. Extremely friendly staff who care about their patrons.

Nothing new in a while, but good place to take kids

Always fun to take the family. I just wish they would update their exhibits more often.

Great place for kids and parents alike. 100% recommend the winter, spring and summer camps.

This place is awesome for kids. My 2 and 4 year old loved the place so much I had to buy a season pass and for a family of 4 it was surprisingly cheap!

Awesome place for kids to spend hours! My 2 1/2 year old stayed for 2 hours! He would've stayed longer if I'd have let him.

Take a child here, and learn something new with them.

Its a lot of fun for kids and adults and its a good places to take toddlers

Great place. My girls loved it and cried when we had to leave. Very neat place.

Better than I expected. 3 kids all under 6 years old and we didn t run out of things to do.

Awesome place for kids to learn different things in life

Always the headliner to a day of fun for my 5 kids ages 5 mos to 7yrs

Very nice and interactive for the little ones, I really like it.

Great place to take your kids to explore and learn. It would be a little better if they had a tour or something. Other than that my kids had lots of fun exploring and being kids.

Love love love this place. A place where they can have fun and learn. And it's not pricey at all.

My 2 year old, husband, parents and I had a blast for hours! $8 / adult is a steal.
