I have to say, I had mixed feelings going in to this place. Had heard good and bad things... the teens were excited by the way it looked outside. I have to say, all four of us (including the hubby) were pleasantly surprised! There were so many things to do... to test yourself in different ways such at strength, ability,... More

Geared towards older kids, the museum inside has nothing to do with the upside down building look. Was very crowded when we went, and long lines. We had 3 kids under the age of 7, and while they said it was fun our money could have been spent elsewhere (i.e. like the carnival or kiddie parks...more their age interest)

My wife and I took our three children (10, 8, 7) to WonderWorks this past March during our spring break trip. On the day in question, the staff kept people lined up outside the building in wind and rain, in spite of the fact that there was plenty of space in the ticketing area. The tickets were not cheap, so... More

So much to do here. Give yourself the day. You can go in and out as you want. We came at a high volume time, hard to get to anythng, but came later at meal time and it was low volume. We did some things over and over it was so fun.

It's a for-profit children's museum. Crowded, and many exhibits didn't work properly. The best thing in the whole place was the tunnel upon entry, after that it was all downhill.

So crowded couldnt even stand and raise arms you would hit someone. For the few things we done in that 2 hours... More

When we are experiencing high volumes, a sign is posted at every admissions counter to notify guests to anticipate longer wait times at exhibits as we want all of our guests to enjoy their experience with us. These signs are only present when we are busy and clearly state... More

My family had a blast at WonderWorks! I wouldn't recommend it for young children, but there are plenty of activities for kids 8+, teens, and adults. We all learned something during our visit and loved the hands-on activities. The staff members were helpful and friendly. I didn't think the tickets were overpriced at all, especially considering the number of exhibits... More

Spent the afternoon with my family in the upsidedown mansion and everyone had a blast! My daughter was a little scared of the tunnel at first but a really nice employee was there to help me encourage her . The lines can get a little long but its worth the wait :)
