Q:
I find a lot of Science Centers are really geared towards kids. I'm 28, would probably go buy myself. Would this still be a good place for me to visit or would I feel weird and out of place in a place that is very kids-centric?
A:
I went with 2 adults and 1 child and we all enjoyed it. It comes down to how invested are you in participating in all the offerings. I did it all and loved it as much as my 12 year old. There is …

I went with 2 adults and 1 child and we all enjoyed it. It comes down to how invested are you in participating in all the offerings. I did it all and loved it as much as my 12 year old. There is plenty for adults to do and I saw many couples and friends without kids.

Q:
Hi, I am planning a trip to Baltimore with two 11 year old boys. Is there something for their age or is this more of a little kid place? I only see little kids in the pictures. We went to the science museum in St. Louis last year and it was great for big kids. I'm hoping this is comparable.

My kids were 7 and 10 when we went and they both had fun. I didn't find this science center to be as interactive as others that we have been to around the country but the kids still …

My kids were 7 and 10 when we went and they both had fun. I didn't find this science center to be as interactive as others that we have been to around the country but the kids still enjoyed it. Unless your boys are very interested in science, I would say figure on this being a half day activity.
Q:
Do you have to buy the tickets online or are they available on site?
A:
We purchased ours at the door. We didn't check online. There was no wait or bother to get them at the door.

Q:
My 3-year old is the kind of kid whose favorite "toy" is everyday electrical devices - vacuums, fans, air pumps, extension cords, etc. Would he enjoy MSC, or should we wait a few years?
