💬 What Visitors Say

💬Plan for a 2-3 hour visit as most guests can complete the entire venue in about 2 hours. This makes it ideal for a half-day trip, especially for younger children who may get fatigued with longer outings.
💡Many permanent exhibits are aging and some are out of commission, but rotating exhibits on the 2nd floor are regularly updated and well-maintained. Prioritize newer rotating exhibits like Scooby-Doo Mansion Mayhem and Wild Kratts for the best interactive experience.
💡Discovery Cube is best suited for children ages 2-6; reviews indicate that children 7 and older may find it repetitive and boring. Plan visits accordingly based on your child's age and consider membership if you have very young children.
💡Bring hand sanitizer and wipes—the venue is popular with school groups and large field trips, resulting in high-touch exhibit surfaces. One reviewer mentioned a field trip with ~1000 kids present, so expect crowds and plan hygiene accordingly.
💬Consider an annual membership if visiting more than once or twice per year. The membership option for unlimited visits and special perks like Members Only Mornings and Sensory Friendly Mornings provides good value for repeat visitors in the LA or OC area.
