Reviews
The kid enjoyed her time here and thought it was a fun-filled and educational outing so this rates as a 5 star experience. I had fun too, especially in the air play area. The lightning show was mostly awesome.
Loved the new air exhibition. If I lived closer I'd come more often as being a concession card holder you get general admission for free. My son loved designing his own futuristic car
Fantastic fun for all ages. Free entry with concession or $10 each without, still great family friendly pricing. Over 2 hours of interactions where all the kids big a day small CAN touch things we will be back for certain. Next trip is the planetarium On site Cafe pricing is reasonable also.
Pretty disappointed in this place, especially considering the price of admission. To start with, the parking is horrible. Plenty of people circling or camping in the limited nearby parking. Once inside, the first impression was that it’s all looking a bit tired and worse for wear. It’s also just plain dirty. Second impression is that there’s actually not a huge amount to see and do, especially when you take into consideration the fact that several exhibits were out of order. The same is true for the overall facilities. This is the first and last time we make the trek here. ACMI or the Melbourne Museum are far better options.
What I like about Scienceworks is that its setting is well made for people at all ages. Anyone can learn and have fun at the same time. But the best thing about it is that it is interactive and it invites people to learn how Science actually works in our lives.nI’ve been to different Scienceworks in other countries and this is smaller in size compared to the others but I find it pretty easy to walk around in it with family and friends and has enough stuff to amuse us.nI love that it has a lot of interactive activities for people to try and learn many different types Science.nFor young kids, they can see the screen and follow simple instruction to grow plants, save water and recycle. Kids can learn how to do better things to the earth by doing fun activities and games. I love that kids can run and see the effective ways of running at the same time. The settings are intriguing and inviting. I love the outdoor and indoor play area. The indoor play area for kids is very educational as they can physically build with plastic bricks and turn and turn off light switches and etc. I enjoyed seeing my kids doing the entire wall of light switches as it took a half an hour and I could just sit and relaxed.nMore fun continues with wheelchair race and things like checking their heights and weights. A lot of physical activities were offered so at the end of the day, kids will be tired and have a good night sleep which is my ultimate goal.nWe are museum members so the entry was free but it is generally free for kids and $15 for adults. The price is reasonable considering what it offers to everyone. The coffee from the cafe was good too. Highly recommend Scienceworks I spent much more hours than expected so snack is a must for any family with young kids.nnParking was easy even if I visited on weekend.nIt is a fixed fee for all day and pretty reasonable.nnUpdate from Jan 2024nThere has been a new exhibition with $8 per person for Air Playground. A lot of air-related play settings and crafts available. Worth trying! My kids loved it
