Pacific Science Center

After visiting the Space Needle, I decided to take my kids to revisit the nearby Pacific Science Center. They had visited as toddlers but didn't remember much. Thanks to our Discovery Cube pass and the ASTC Travel Passport Program, we could visit for free. They enjoyed the variety of exhibitions, making the day even more memorable.

Nice place to bring the kids. I enjoyed the butterfly park. Dinosaur exhibits are loved by the children. Demonstration on fire and safety was interesting. I did not go to the iMax theatre but I believe it would have been exciting. There were activities for the children to learn and build models too.

We had a great day at the Pacific Science Center. All the exhibits are so fun and the kids loved it all. They have something for everyone. Science, Dinosaurs, Butterflies, Building, Music and so much more. A few things I would note: - Getting in was the worse part. There should be a line or entrance for tickets purchased online or if you have a membership. The line was so slow…then left for lunch and had to wait in line again just for reentry. Poorly organized. -3D Shows don’t have kids glasses. Strange considering it’s mostly kids in the museum. I wouldn’t bother taking kids 6 and under to it since they don’t fit and just watch a blurry show. -Avoid the winter laser shower…other than a couple songs that have winter in words there was nothing winter about it. It was more like a rave. Enjoyable but not what I was expecting.

Had an awesome time at the 21+ "science after dark" event! I loved that they had vegan cupcakes. The whole event was so fun and interactive. I cannot recommend this center or this event enough if they have it again next year I'll attend again. 3 hours and I still feel like there was more I could've explored while being there. This event was just the best and all of the entertainment was spectacular. This totally made it to be the best Valentine's day ever!

For science enthusiasts of all ages, the Pacific Science Center is an amazing place to visit. With a range of exhibits and experiences, it provides the ideal fusion of entertainment and education right in the center of Seattle. The Laser Dome, which offers captivating laser light displays accompanied by music, is one of the most notable features. Families, couples, or anyone else seeking something new will love this immersive and one-of-a-kind experience. Another highlight are the IMAX theaters, which offer breathtaking scenery and educational movies that bring nature and science to life on a large screen. It is essential to visit the Tropical Butterfly House. For children in particular, it is a mystical experience to stroll among the lovely butterflies in a warm, lush setting. The Planetarium is a popular destination for tourists because it provides intriguing insights into astronomy and space. Another great addition that promotes innovation and hands-on creativity is the Tinker Tank makerspace. The Live Science Stage, which features interactive demonstrations that make learning entertaining and interesting, will also appeal to science enthusiasts. The Dinosaurs exhibit, which includes life-sized models and information about these ancient animals, is a wonderful trip back in time for dinosaur enthusiasts. Even though some of the center's amenities are being renovated, its creative programs continue to offer the community worthwhile experiences. Anyone visiting Seattle should make time to visit the Pacific Science Center. There is something for everyone, regardless of your interests in biology, technology, space, or hands-on activities. Curiosity and education flourish there thanks to its fascinating exhibits and captivating presentations. For the most recent information, visit their website and make travel plans right now!

The Pacific Science Center is fantastic for all age kids and toddlers! The dedicated toddler space is thoughtfully designed at their height, with engaging activities like blocks, musical instruments, trains, riding cars, and water play. The dinosaur section was especially impressive with detailed displays, and the physics playground was a fun, hands-on way to see science laws in action. We didn’t get to explore every section, but this visit was so enjoyable—we can’t wait to come back soon!

Wonderful museum, especially for kids (young and older) with a wide variety of activities and educational experiences to learn. The museum has a music area, dinosaurs, space, sea creatures, crafts, physics and a lot of hands-on things to do, play areas, and experimental activities ensure to keep kids very busy for many hours. The outside has an impressive patio with water activities , some sculptures and plants. We could see the laser show, very interesting experience but ir can be overwhelming for young kids.

Very cool place! There's lots of interactive stuff for the kiddos (mine were 1 yr, 7, and 9.) It does seem like there's a lot of wasted space.. everything is SUPER spread out but I guess that's good if you go on the wknd with more people there. IMAX 3D jurassic movie was awesome but they have so many shows and movie options (for an additional price) you hardly have time to see the museum. But that can be a good thing so you have variety. Combustion show was super awesome!
