McWane Science Center

My daughter went here for her field trip of course I was a chaperone, but my group all had fun. There's so much to enjoy and learn at mcwane, we even watched a movie in the imax theater they have,plan on being there all day if you go, cause there's 4 floors on fun filled exciting things to do.

A great place for kids to play! ^^ It’s science through play and learning. There are places to buy food, but you can also bring your own and eat there. Parking is only $5 for the whole day.

We took our kids and they ABSOLUTELY loved this place. There was so much stuff to do here! Spent about 4-5 hours here. So much to see and physical do! Kids were very hands on! We didn’t try the imax this time but will come back to try that out! There was one person/worker that went over and beyond. I can NOT remember her name, but she was the manager of the little cafe. 2 things. 1. The food was great kids the kids loved the little things they made out of them. All allergy friendly. 2. The manager was so helpful with the menu, I am on a special diet and they help me get something together that I could eat. So very thankful for her. You can bring your own food home and eat it they have a special place that you sit and eat with home brought food. I will definitely will be back!

Not too pricey, plenty of hands on activities for kids to do to spark thier curiosity! Didn't even know there was an aquarium and Lego room as well! Great place to take the kids

10/10 definitely recommend! Not expensive at all! So many fun things to do with the family. Things to do of all ages. Definitely well worth this trip!

Coolest museum! So much to learn and so much for the kids to do, definitely set aside a few hours to tour this gem. Don't miss out on the Imax dome either!

3 floors of interactive and educational activities for children. We highly recommend the kids' section for children ages 6 and under! The shark and stingray tank was also a highlight.

The Lego interpretation of this science center was so cute. My daughter didn’t want to leave the Itty Bitty Tiny Magic City which is located on the second floor. We mostly spent our time there. They also have a little aquarium area at the lowest floor level. It houses Moe, a green moray eel, and they also have an area where you can pet sting rays. If you have little humans, I highly recommend this while you are in Birmingham.
