Editorial Review for Science Museum of Minnesota – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
This large riverfront building puts everything in the open, making for a spacious and bright setting. From a street-level entrance on Kellogg Boulevard, visitors descend through five levels of exhibits, plus a 415-seat Omnitheater, a 3-D laser show, classrooms--and 15 sets of restrooms. Inside, adults and children are entertained by a world-class display of fossils and dinosaurs, miscellaneous collections, plus interactive exhibits about the human body, the Mississippi River and other natural wonders.

I went to this Museum last year for a school trip. I had a blast. I had so much fun at every exhibit! Now I'm trying to talk my mom into bringing our family tomorrow.

Great stop, even for the "science for dumdies". the museum ofers many great exhibits, you can spend all day here and never get the full experiance. A great stop for kids, lots of interaction stations, great science shows. A must see in the Twin Cities.
