  I have been to many science museums but this one stands out. The amount of interaction it allows children (of all ages-we were a group ranging from 65 years old to 10 months and all found things to enjoy) is impressive. We felt it was well worth a visit and even said we wished we had something similar near us at home. Nothing was broken or in disrepair on our visit and the staff was very friendly. Even the food was good! Thank you for a great place to have our family spend a wonderful day playing together!

  I think my biggest issue, if you can call it that, is that there are not very many English screenings of the IMAX features.

  Great place to bring kids to have fun while learning sciences. Even though there is exposition for smaller kids, the main expositions target kids 7 yr old and up. We had a lot of fun with our kids and they really wanted to participate in most of the activities. Science 26 is really something passionnant to do

  This is a well-maintained children's science museum geared toward mostly elementary to middle-schoolers. Though smaller kids can have fun there, too. The front desk staff was very courteous and quite patient at answering questions. There is a pet/fur display on the first floor with coat check and storage boxes. The main exhibits stretch deep on most of the second floor as a long rectangular area. The second floor exhibits starts with a very open-ended workshop for building functional gadgets, sail-cars, battery-powered devices to be tested in the adjacent areas. Then going in, the visitors will see a medical exhibit, then with mechanics/physics, optics, machines, physical exercises area. It takes about 2-3 hours to explore all areas. You can easily spend half a day. The museum was located at river side where gorgeous views can be found. It's also within walking distance to old Montreal, the Basilica and many interesting small shops and tasty food.

  Great way to spend a rainy day. The exhibition on the human body was amazing. I also really like their gift shop. Full of scientific books, toys and educational paraphernalia. I had to buy some.

  This is a must for people with kids. I definitely depend on the science centre, especially during the winter when it's hard to get outside with the kids. There is a softplay area for very young children, and an area that is a blast for kids and adults.
