“I had a fun time at the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History! There’s a good mix of science and history exhibits, from dinos and cowboys to interactive hands-on areas that keep kids busy. The planetarium was also a cool experience that added something different to the visit. It feels great for families and kids especially, though some parts are more geared toward younger visitors and can be a bit dated in spots. Still, it’s a neat place to explore, learn, and spend a couple of hours if you’re in the Fort Worth Cultural District.”

Tons of interactive displays for children of all ages and lots of unique displays of dinosaurs, oil field equipment, and ranch life. Plus special exhibits for super heros and the barbie world. Grand finally was the omni theater movie Animal Kingdom which was well done.

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!

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.

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.
