The question really should be, what isn't good here. AAA rates it a gem and it's deserved. We have a membership, and it's paid off itself in spades. Bubble Day was highly successful.

Melissa SavoyDecember 29, 2019Newton’s Alley was terrific, and the place to go if you have small children (or adult children with a love of play).
Incredibly fun for both adults and kids. Explore the Earth, how things work, the body, and space. Top level has a kids room for the younger crowd!

You can bring guests on your family membership if you have extra spots. Caregiver/Babysitter can take the kids even if primary member isn't going- you just have to send a note!
Hillel GlazerJuly 10, 2011If you prefer to park on the street: 2hr pkg & 4hr nearby. Get 4hr ticket @ the machine directly across the street from the group entrance, then drive over to the 2hr area where there's more space.
Christine MarlowApril 28, 2010The Maryland Science Center is a wonderful place for kids. They have a wonderful sensory room with all sorts of hands on exhibits for the children.
