We're here almost every weekend. Worth a trip, or a membership for locals. The water feature in summer is fun, and the trails are beautiful and underused.
Make sure to bring a change if you want to have the kiddos play in the water part in the back (it’s great!), be prepared for the best bubble room ever too!
Great exhibits for kids and families. Sign up your preschooler for science classes on Wednesday if you are a local!
Great place to bring kids, My 4 year old nephew was keeps busy for hours. We love SUE... OHH make sure you go outside
Great fun when they have adult nights from 6 to 9 every couple of months. Play, play, play!
A real hidden treasure ! Make sure the kids have either a swim suit or a change of clothes for the wading pool area . Good family hiking trails as well
The Dynamic Earth exhibit was made possible due to a 5 year NASA grant designed to give visitors a better understanding of how Earth is changing based on both man made and natural forces. Read more
If you are looking for activities to keep the kids entertained (and not bore you) check out this hands on museum . Don't forget a swimsuit and watershoes.
Arrive as early as possible so you can take advantage of all of the fun activities!
The Montshire is a great place for families with kids ranging in age from 1 - 30! In the summer there is an outside water exhibit so if you have little ones bring a change of clothes .
Great place creative place to have a wedding reception. Especially when there's children of all ages
As an adult, I love Windows on Earth. Similar to Google Earth. I could sit there for hours!
Gain free admission via the ASTC reciprocal admission program!
Awesome for kids and grownups alike. Don't forget a bathing suit for your kids so they can play in the water part during the summer.
Bring a lunch ; lots of picnic areas , and trails to walk. Great for kids of all ages !
During the summer, King Arthur Flour has fresh sandwiches available for lunch at the big white tent outside! Yum!
An annual membership is a no brainer for local families. Too bad the museum isn't an ASTC passport participant.
Best place EVER for kids (of ALL ages !!!)
Queen leaf cutter ant in smallest fungus garden . Saw the thorax today!
Fun for all ages !

My usual go-to is Bacio (Chocolate / Hazelnut). Otherwise my favorite that I've ever had is Dark Chocolate Chili. Other great choices are lemon and grapefruit for citrus lovers. - Morris Levy
