I will most definitely be back! The grandkids loved it. They are 5 & 7. Admission covers all stimulation activity. Plenty of free parking.

This place is fantastic. We went on a Saturday in the afternoon and we still had a delightful time. I did spend most of the time chasing a 6 year old but I think I am going to come back alone and walk through to get a better idea of what MI has to offer. I recommend this place for sure!!

Took my granddaughters who are visiting here from NC. We all enjoyed the experience. The only complaint is that archery was unavailable today. Check out some pics.

Hours of fun for young children. Hands on learning opportunities in a safe, well organized and clean environment. Admission price was very reasonable as well.

What an awesome spot to take the kids, honestly neat for all ages. Lots of interactive exhibits for the kids to engage. We went on the first Sunday of the month when they did free admission (not realizing), so we had a little bit of a wait and it was VERY crowded. Overall, great experience the kids had a blast and if it weren't for the crowds we would have stayed longer.

Great place to take the kids...or be a kid! Very cool and different interactive adventures with lots of information / outdoor displays. Cool location with great rates. Really liked the on-site chainsaw carving and two person saw at the entrance as well.

This place is great with kids and a hidden gem in Detroit! Affordable, clean, fun and educational. The cost is really affordable as well as I think it was only a few dollars admission. I like that it's big enough to keep your family occupied for a couple of hours, but small enough where you can see everyone easily and not get to lost in an overwhelming building like some museums can be. The only think missing, is decent food options if you get hungry...but other than that, this place is a masterpiece of creativity, building re-use, and the best example of bringing the outdoors, indoors in the area.

We had such a fun time here! Lots of cool exhibits. All of the workers were VERY friendly, engaging and patient. Kids can learn about the ecosystems in the state and explore. There are virtual experiences and places to climb, jump and explore. It’s a great deal at $5 per kid, $9 for adults and $50 for a members - plus it’s free every first Sunday. As a bonus, it looks out on a great view of the Detroit river. Just need some family friendly dining close by to make this the perfect afternoon outing. Highly recommend.
