We enjoy the place every time we visit! A lot of fun activities for kids, great Planetarium shows. On the New Year's Eve, we saw the "Midnight Noon" ball drop, which was fun. Kids always have a great time here!
Make a rainy day great! On rainy weekends when my 3 boys NEED to get put of the house, the Maryland Science Center is a great opportunity to get my kids stimulated in a STEM environment. Hands on demonstrations and experiments help keep it …
I love Science Centers like this and always visit them, from FL, WI, and now MD! The Science Center is big, really big, three to four stories big if I recall correctly, spacious enough for anyone and very clean with a pleasant atmosphere …
Great museum. Very large. Great for social distancing. The kids dedicated area is nice but a little dated. The dinosaur 🦕 area is great. And lots of interactive places for the kids to experiment, learn, touch & feel. Going around 1030 was …
The Science center is really a fun place. Go solo or with the family, but lots to do here. In my opinion, it wasn't too crowded. First thing, get that parking ticket validated! …
First of all, Baltimore City teachers should know that they can get in absolutely free with their teacher IDs. It’s an amazing perk. …
Our favorite place to go with the kids. Lots of shows. Get the annual membership, and you will love it. Parking is $12. Bring your own food. There is a small cafe with limited options.

Great museum for kids. We visited during spring break so it was a bit crowded but expected. The museum consisted of three different floors with lots of interactive exhibits for children to explore. There is also a demo stage where a quick science experiment is demonstrated. I would recommend the museum to families.
Kids had a great time, and the planetarium was underwhelming. Wanted to see starts and stuff but ended up watching a video. Dome screen was cool, but not was i was expecting. Lost of stuff for the kids to run and try...great to get rid of some extra energy
