Whimsy meets scientific discovery at the OKC Science Museum! I am always amazed by the imagination that went in to many of the exhibits here. Adults and children alike are challenged to think about the “hows” and “whys” behind many of the exhibits, while playing and having fun. There is so much to do and learn! The live shows are fantastic- both informative and entertaining. Everything is well done, and very clean. I am particularly impressed but the two nursing rooms as well! There were several changing stations, comfortable chairs, lots of space, and even a few toys for nursing mothers and their babies. There is a little something for everyone here. Highly recommend!
Really amazing place. Me and my family had a lot of fun, kids really enjoyed the museum. A lot of interactive things to do, to explore and to experiment. Its perfect for kids from 11 years old and more, but younger kids are going to have fun as well. Consider to spent at least 5 hours or more too really see everything.
The place is really great to bring a family and enjoy lots of interesting exhibits and displays. The museum houses a lot of different museums as well as different areas for other topics and subjects. Myself I really enjoyed the aviation and train areas that had lots of historic items. The cool thing this place is that is also ties in how Oklahoma is connected to all the different topics. There is a food court type place that has a couple of different options. They serve Starbucks coffee. And the staff keep everything clean even when they are busy. Really great to see that during my visit.
Pretty fun. I always loved going here when I was a boy, and my two little guys had a blast. Price was a bit steep but Im considering joining as a member and making it a regular weekend activity since theres so much to do there. Some of the exhibits are still there from when I was a kid.
By far the best science museum Ive ever been to. VERY large location with tons of exhibits. Staff was great with multiple interactions and shows. We took our 3 year old and my father, so a large age range and everyone enjoyed.

Definitely worth a trip, whether you have kids or not. Definitely better if you have kids with you, but the trains, bikes, and airplane collection are very cool.
Most awesome time!! Got there at noon and all 3 kids were able to see everything and experience soooo much!! It was so nice to see kids be able to experience everything... We could of used more time!! I think they loved playing with everything so much they completely got to lose themselves in the moment away from the crazy stuff happening around them and just be kids for a moment. You can play with jacobs ladder, space stuff, experience an earthquake, play huge board games, watch planets explode, do morse code, splash in salt water coming from the ceiling, try to arrange pipes to fix a sinking ship, ride a segway, bounce, pedal a bike, slide down a slide, raise a hot air balloon, play with soundwaves, organize bug parts, play on a balancing beam and a tight rope, ride a carousel, make paper airplanes, get dizzy in the mind games corner, and play with a Tesla tower, dig a hole, listen to a sound booth, do a hearing test, look in a periscope, play a musical instrument, dance with a skeleton and even put on a play.. . And Soo much more.. thanks for the fun!!!!
Great day, very hands on. My favorite will always be the Planetarium the show is great. I was very suprised how amused even the adults where in the childrens section, and how many things you can do as a group. We had such a blast we werent able to see/do everything so for sure we are going back.
This museum is so cool. It has dinosaurs, an arboretum, food court, airplanes, NASA museum, trains, electricity and sound science. We were there all day and still did not see it all.
It was ok. I researched before I went and it didnt say anything about it be a childrens museum. It was good for what it was but if you dont have kids then its probably not going to be that great. Wasnt worth the price of admission.
This place is great for children. Lots of fun exhibits and areas where they can participate in arts and crafts. I would definitely recommend this as a destination for any one with kids whether theyre interested in science or not. Its well worth it.
Very interesting place for Kids to develop a passion for learning and look beyond the boundaries of the common.
Wonderful suggestion by the hotel staff. This place is huge and it has so much stuff for the kids to see and plenty of hands-on activities. The kids could have easily stayed all day.I also LOVED the cycling exhibit!
It was amazing! By far one of the best museum experiences for Kids!! There are plenty of interactive learning stations and some cool shows to go see. I enjoyed it and I am an adult!!! This is a must see attraction here in Oklahoma City!!
So much fun! There was something to do for any age. Lots of interesting things and hands on activities. We spent the whole day and ate lunch there. The food was good and we went back for more fun.
We spent the entire day there and would do it again in a heartbeat! Freaking awesome place, and great for all ages!
Overall awesome place. Would give 5 stars but several exhibit out of order
We spent the day and only finished the first floors activities. Definitely coming back to see whats left.Science Live and Planetarium shows were awesome.
Loved this! Lots of interactive fun for the entire family! Kids, young adults, parents, and even couples could find plenty to do here! Good mix of history and innovation, things to read and things for play. Easy to keep socially distanced for covid purposes, and there are unobtrusive disinfectant wipe stations all over! Highly recommend to anyone in/visiting Oklahoma City!
Lots of interesting things to do and see. My grandson loves going there.
I love the different rotating exhibits featuring different artists/influential people in history. Theres tons of fun things to do and see, definitely worth a visit. The only downside is the cost of everything in their gift shop- everything in there is way overpriced for the select items.
Great place to help kids learn and for fun want to go again
Amazing museum lots of awesome things to tinker with and see! Definitely a great way to spend a day :)
Its a great place to visit on a hot summer day. Theres a lot of hands on exhibits for kids and the planetarium show was awesome! They have the best cheeseburger at the food court...honest!
Extreamly fun. My favorite part is the old planes part. At the food court I loved the burgers. Its not a hard decision to make this 5 stars.
This is one of the BEST places in Oklahoma! I had a great time here. my family and I have been here three times. go here! youll never regret it!
Oh WOW! Yes you need to stop here. Our 2 hour planned visit turned into 4hours and we still didnt see everything. The childrens exhibit was immersive, fun and entertaining. Defy gravity, build airplanes, cars, act on a stage, join a carnival, hand powered fun, springs, slingshots. This was the first exhibit we walked into and it blew us away with its awesomeness. I loved seeing my son riding the pendulum of a giant clock. There is a nursing mothers lounge here. Youll love the name of the snack bar, Pavloves. Take a mental break out in the garden, a fresh air section. Then back into the fray for planets, rockets, tornadoes, torpedoes, robots dinosaurs, tree houses to climb. I can go on and on listing the amazing things this place has. Make the time to stop in here. You will not be dissapointed.
Absolutely waste of time and money. Totally boring and empty!! First off no cash allowed at the door. Oh but the super expensive snack bar will gladly take all your cash. Never ever again! Im very let down. My kids were too. Bummer.
There is so much to do that you may have to make 2 trips. So much fun and tons of stuff to see. I wouldnt suggest eating here. The food is yuck. Definitely worth the price of the tickets.
Im giving it a 4 star because my grandson had alot and hes only 2
Outstanding! I think my kids would just live there...especially if my wife would just let me leave them.
Very clean and well sanitized, all the workers there were professional and always helpful!A very cool place as an adult, as a kid I would have gone nuts, this place is so cool!
I know we are in a pandemic but I feel that companies show their true colors on how they treat not only their members but customers in general. We purchased a family membership and used it ONCE before they closed for 2 months for COVID. However they will not freeze your membership and allow you to use it next year. This to me is unacceptable, when you have a high risk child no matter how much cleaning you do it is not safe to have them out in large public places. I would have thought a SCIENCE museum would be more understandable and treat their customers with more respect. Will NOT be buying another membership and will try to dispute on my card. Very disappointed!
Great place. Easy for the kids to lose track of time. While having a blast with the exhibits
It was a fun experience for the whole family. Several things to do for all ages. It was a good mix of educational while being really fun.
A wonderful museum that helps protect the health of its guests by enforcing their mask policy. Kudos to the workers.
Love to take my kids here they learned so much and have an amazing time
This is an awesome hands on museum with lots of exhibits to keep everyone at any age happy. Our 6 and 11 year olds loved it!
As always, a wonderful scientific experience for young and old
Spent almost the whole day here and still feel like we missed something. This science museum definitely holds up to others we have been to. Lots of different sections to discover is many different ways and of course plenty of hands on fun. This place even had a snack counter and Starbucks coffee, didnt check out prices but good so you dont have to leave. Also this museum is apart of the ASTC list for members!
We went here last Fall and it was an EPIC experience! My 8 year old really enjoyed himself. We went with family that had little ones (under 3) and they also had a great time! One of the few places you can take a wide range of ages and keep them entertained for hours.
Wow we could have spent all day here. So much to see & do. Live shows hands on science activities and more. There is a restaurant on site. Divided into multiple sections. We didnt even make it upstairs. Located right next to the Zoo you can park at one & walk to the other. There are some activities that have additional fees.
This place has something for everyone. As a family we can spend the whole day here without getting bored. I highly recommend buying a membership if you plan to visit more than once instead of purchasing a day pass. It pays for itself down the road.
This place was so incredible! There is so much to to see we had to spend 2 days there and and I know there was some stuff we didnt get to see! ASTC members this is one of the best museums that participates in the program. The Museum allows outside food and drinks. There is a STARBUCKS as well. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. There are new exhibits in the works that look like they will be epic. Just about everything is hands on. Even as an adult I had a whole heap of fun! I absolutely recommend going to this museum!
Fun place for kids! Other science museums/centers tend to be very content-heavy (which is great for adults), but this has a lot of hands-on activities. Took my 3-year-old who had a blast. Has nursing rooms throughout. Pleasantly surprised that the cafeteria had several vegetarian options and even a vegan salad.
Best awesome place in OKC.
This museum is HUGE, definitely worth the price. I am thnkful I got a membership so I could go back and see everything I missed the first 3 times! They have 4 kids areas throughout that they can just play hard and then they have an adult playplace too (for those who desire to have fun with their kids). I would recommend this place over the zoo during the summer because it is air conditioned.
Such an amazing experience for the kids and family.
Our experience started out great right as we walked in the door. The gentlemen working at the entrance were so nice and they told us places in the museum that the kids would love. Of course the kids had a blast everywhere inside the museum. After visiting more than 100 museums in the last 2 years, our kids said this could be the best in the country. In fact we are planning a second visit because it was so awesome. One of my pictures is of my oldest son throwing a fireball at their super fun explosives show!
Great science museum. A full days worth of adventure for kids of all ages.
Weve been twice and we love it! The first time my son was 6 and now hes 12. He had a blast both times! This place is great for kids of all ages. I saw kids from toddlers to teens having fun all day. Its worth it to make the trip. There are just so many things to do and explore! The play areas are big enough for big kids and small enough for little kids too. Everything is so vibrant and really catches your attention. The interactive parts are the best thing about this place. It really makes you use your imagination while teaching you why your brain does what it does.
Great place to spend with your family .
Had lots of fun ! And very educational without your child realizing that they are learning
I used to come here as a kid and love bringing my toddler here when we visit. There are so many types of exhibits for children (and adults) of all ages with different interests. Love that there is a separate toddler area with a door to keep them from getting run over by the older kids and there’s even a nursing room inside the toddler area. Great place to visit!
Great day with the kiddos exploring and learning. Thanks for keeping it safe and opened!!
This Place is a waste of money. You can’t play with over half the stuff. When you asked for your membership back they tell you NO even though we won’t go back until Covid is over or maybe not at all since they were no help.
A fun place to take your kids or grandchildren. Those always love it.
Used to come here all the time when the kid was younger, but it has added a bunch of new attractions and activities! They are taking extra measures to prevent the spread of Covid-19 by having sanitizer and sanitizing wipes located throughout the museum, which is nice to see. Lots of things for younger kids to explore, but teens can still learn and ha e fun, too!
Getting a membership to this science museum while living in Oklahoma was the best decision ever! Weve stayed here for hours because there is just so much to do. The children learn and play all in one place. Weve been to two other science museums and this is the best one weve had the pleasure of experiencing. It is also the reason we plan to visit as many science museums near us during our travels.
Great science museum for the whole family, however it really shines for children. So much hands on where most science museums have more reading based learning. This is way better, there get to touch and do.
Love this place! I am glad we have to wear masks and the employees wear masks as well.
I remember visiting the museum when I was a kid and having a blast. I met one of the employees recently (Barry) and he recommended I take my kids, I couldnt believe this was the same place, its so much better now. My kids had a great time and we will definitely be back. I highly recommend the Science Museum to anyone.
Friendly staff, so many AMAZING things to learn and see and do - I enjoyed this just as much as my 7 year old. Has a little history snuck in there too, and they really make it come ALIVE. The planetarium was a great experience. This was worth every penny and more.
Thank you guys so much for providing such a sweet curious and clean environment. This place is stimulating thoughtful and doing an excellent job of taking precautions for Corona virus
So much to do here. My 5 YO son spent over an hour just in the first little exhibit. This place is amazing. And the food is impressive, beautiful personal pizzas for very reasonable prices (compared to most underwhelming and overpriced museum fare).
Lots of fun for the kids! Ages 11 & 8. Definitely need plenty of time here, spent 4 hours and didnt get to see/do everything. Drove almost 3 hours to visit, definitely wanna go back! On a side note, they have awesome nursing rooms!
My kids and I had a WONDERFUL time here. We watched the show and learned how to make a fireball, we played checkers and chess upstairs, the optical illusion was great for the kids, they learned about tornadoes and how currents work. It was fun and educational at the same time. Awesome family fun and it wasnt expensive $50 for 3?!?! All you can play/learn. Best deal hands down
It gets better every trip. We discover something new each time. This time it was dinosaurs. The annual pass is worth it.
Very nice interactive entertainment
Its a spacious place to hang out with friends and do some cool ( and educational ) activities. I can imagine a family easily spending a whole day here. Its always nice to see when they bring in new interactive displays and update material. Its definitely worth a visit if youre in the area with a young family and looking for something to do.
Awesome place for the whole family! Lots of fun and very educational all at the same time!
Science Museum has so many different hands on things for kids to do. My grandchildren love coming here. Which made buying a silver membership worth it.
Love this place great for kids
Very very fun place for kids to go to. has all sorts of cool stuff kids could do. if their board this is the place to take them. you wont regret taking them here. awsome place ! thanks ! - sunshine
What to say about the Science Museum. I love it here. Me and my husband visited this past weekend and although were adults, we had so much fun exploring. Its fantastic how much you learn and adding the hands on approach is fantastic. Ive told everyone i know (especially with children) to check out the Science Museum.Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
I had not been to the Science Museum for several years but returned with my sister and five grandchildren in tow. Ages 13, 11, 10, 5 and 6. The three older children girls and the two younger boys. What a surprise for this grandpa! The Museum had been completely updated and significantly expanded since my last trip. We had planned to only spend two or three hours but ended up spending the whole day and wishing we had more time. It is packed with hands on activities for all ages. Most of them have a learning component if you can get the kids to slow down long enough to appreciate that part. The Museum is well staffed so help is always available if there are questions and we found the staff to be very pleasant and knowledgeable. The exhibits are so well designed and robust that I dont remember hearing a staff person ask a youngster to be more careful or please dont do that all day long. And there were a lot of very active boys and girls in the museum that day. There are activities for just about any age from toddlers to teens with perhaps the prime ages for the Museum being 8-12. But it is great for all ages. Even an old granddad. A great place for all ages.
SO MUCH FUN! The museum is ever evolving! Seems like they are constantly improving. Exhibits change often so most every trip to the museum will be a new experience in some way. You’ll never be bored. Even with no crowds, it’s impossible to explore the entire thing in one day. 10/10 would recommend. PERFECT FOR THE COLD WINTER WEEKDAYSOH! Not to mention, their cafe offers food made fresh to order! My southwest salad had fresh jalapeños, fresh corn, and house made dressing. I was expected a pre-packaged salad but was pleasantly surprised. They have a variety of GF options as well including Gluten Free Pizza. Overall impressed with their food.
This place is amazing! Worth a revisit! Appropriate for all ages. Very clean and didnt see anything that was broken or out of order. The live shows are also worth seeing. Plan on a whole day, especially with kids that will read the displays and information.
Kids will have a great time, adults a lesser time but still enjoyable. Dont miss the planetarium show!
Great place to explore for almost any age, interactive and informative, plus always changing. Makes learning fun even for those of us that do not want to learn.Lots to do, lots to see, and does not cost an arm or a leg.
Kids loved it but wish there were more things that worked like they were supposed to.
We always love the OKC Science museum. Curiocity was partially closed for COVID but almost everything else is open. Not super packed and most families are very conscientious of the new rules. Still an A+
The Science Museum is great, and it’s a perfect place to go when it’s too hot to be outside in Oklahoma. They have many hands-on exhibits for kids, including a great area of musical instruments from every day items, and an area for building race tracks and ramps.The snack bar and the grill, which is just down from the snack bar, are good for grabbing something to drink or munch on.Also, given the different membership options available, I would strongly consider a membership if you can make it more than once - especially if you have a kid or kids to bring back.
Had a great time with the Family
Very cool place. Kept the kids busy from open to close!
Fun for the whole family ages 10 to 62.
Always a fun educational experience. Stay curious
Besides having all 31 kiddos and 3 teachers wear masks the field trip was a blast. We go every year and its always worth it!
Brought my family from Alabama. They loved it. Staff was cleaning entire time.
The museum exhibits had a good space between each other and separate groups were clearly marked. Signage was clear. The atmosphere was bright and inviting. I liked the two planetarium shows. At the second show we were informed that the planetarium is old and plans are underway to replace it which will make the shows more enjoyable. There is an area to get snacks though I didn’t check it out so I can’t give any more information. The most important thing, I see is a lot of families with their children who are interacting in and with the exhibits.
Awesome experience for kids and adults of all ages.Shows are fantastic and entertaining, keeps everyone engaged.The displays are hugely interactive and offer a variety of fun learning experiences.
I loved this place as a kid and I probably love it more now as a parent. We have the membership and we love it! We have a 1 year old and a 3 year old and they have the most fun there. I am very grateful for the nurseries so I can take a breastfeeding break and then continue to play with the girls. Everything is so well thought out and the customer service is great!
Absolutely amazing experience. Something for all ages.
Always a great and fun getaway. Kids have a blast . Cost is cheap as well.
SMO keeps their exhibits fresh while retaining familiarity. I love the programs they offer for adults - Over 21 events and teacher workshops. Fantastic!
This museum does not follow, and refuses to, ADA guidelines. Very disappointed.
