We spent an afternoon at the museum, which is located within and around the old train station. Lots of history, lots to do. Very hands on and largely targeted to younger kids.

Full of interactive exhibits, this museum will keep you entertained for hours, fascinating exhibits. Gift shop.

Lots of entertainment for kids and many that adults would enjoy also, some of them are quite challenging. I loved the "music station" part , I actually enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Since its been years since I last was there. Though I have always liked this Building, I don't usually find its exhibits very interesting. But from the amount of kids there...they sure do. Bottom line: your kids will enjoy it.....

My husband and I had a fun time exploring all the interactive exhibits. The exhibit on "wicked plants" was interesting and informative. Overall the content was average but the interactive aspects were what made the museum.

And yet there was not a shortage of interesting science facts that kept their interest. The staff were very helpful, the building neat and clean( some repairs needed) they handled our group well. Overall a nice day

This large museum, housed in a former railroad station, offers a fascinating array of exhibits, informal lectures and movies. It’s a hands-on place, extremely child-friendly. While not an aquarium or zoo, it does have a limited display of live fish, amphibians, reptiles and insects (including a 4-inch cockroach for those who like such things). Our favorite attractions: an exhibition of rats trained to play basketball (!) and a wonderful movie about saving pandas from extinction. A few minor drawbacks: lighting is kind of dim in some of the galleries, and some of the written explanations can be hard to read. They could also use a few more guides or docents. Still, it’s a great learning experience for visitors of any age, and it’s also a lot of fun.

I went for the train show again this year. Tremendous displays and folks willing to talk about their layouts. My grandson(s) go with me each year and (no matter how old they get) always enjoy it. The regular museum displays are educational and well done.

If you're looking to kill a few hours with the family it's not bad. Was hoping for more interactive things.

I went to this museum with family and as a couple. I love this extremely interactive museum. You really need a whole day to explore the whole thing. It is never too busy. I have a personal microchip card to check my progress every time I come back. I went to a great cooking demonstration that teaches about healthy eating. I would go back over and over again. great for all ages.

This science museum is in Richmond, Virginia. It is not as big as some other museums, but has enough to keep kids busy for 2 hours or so. I go to many science museums and Id say this one does not have as much as others in big cities such as Boston or Philly, but if you are passing through, it may be worth a visit. The building itself is very nice. Its an old building (maybe 80 years old or so) with large columns in front and a high atrium with a large pendulum in it. Most of the exhibits were dated, talking about the space shuttle in the present tense, etc... However, there was a very cool exhibit called "Boost" in the basement, which I recommend. It has a bunch of interactive stations for physical fitness. Another interesting part of the exhibit was an interactive music station where you can program real instruments to make a complex rhythm. Once you program it, actuators hit real drums to make the sounds to make the beats. Its a lot of fun. If it weren't for the Boost exhibit, Id give the place 3 dots, but with the boost exhibit, it deserves four dots. It has a nice cafeteria too. Also, for those who drive an electric car, there is a charging station in the parking lot.
