Fort Worth Museum of Science and History

Good museum, a little smaller than the Perot but a good amount of hands on activities for kids. The theater is amazing though definitely worth it. I suggest watching something realistic in the theater to maximize the experience. Animated items aren't as vivid.

Kids really enjoyed it. Ages 6,7,11,12. They had a place for the littles to do hands on activities and a place for the older ones to do hands on activities. They enjoyed those the most. It is much like the Perot Museum in Dallas but with different stuff. If you go to the planetarium, included with ticket, sit opposite of the doors. Otherwise you will be looking over your shoulder.

My daughter is part of the QUEST program in HEB ISD, and we were invited to visit the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History. It was our first time there, and we really enjoyed it! My daughter loved the experience — it was fun, educational, and very well organized. We’d love to visit again!

This was another great experience! I went as a kid, my kids went as kids and now they have upgraded everything to amazing picture and sound quality, and the seats are perfect! Sad to say the helicopter ride from the past is gone, but it so amazing I can't count it against them.

A great place for young children. The nearly overwhelmed our visit. The planetarium is awesome and gives perspective. The Jane Goodall exhibition is magnificent and worth the time for anyone interested in her works.

I was a bit disappointed by this museum. Coming from Albuquerque, NM I guess perhaps I had a different expectation of what a "Science and History" museum should be. Our Natural History museum has exhibits on dinosaurs - which was similar but had less specimens, but also much about the history piece, geology, what the area was like when the dinosaurs were living there. But the FW museum felt more like a museum with an agenda. Rather than explain the why around dinosaurs, it had Texas's 2 main (and somewhat controversial) exported resources and history around them. Also the energy piece was out of date.

It was a great place to take my niece with lots of interactive spaces for little ones. She loves dinosaurs so this was a perfect adventure for her. We had a great time as a family.

Great museum for all ages! The exhibits are fun and hands-on, especially the DinoDig and energy lab — perfect for kids. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the staff was really friendly. It felt a little overpriced for the size, but it’s still a solid half-day activity if you're in the Cultural District. Worth a visit, just don’t expect to spend the whole day there.
