Orlando Science Center
Written By: Gail Clifford | Published By: Weekend Notes | February 15, 2023
The Orlando Science Center contains an impressive amount of activity and exhibits even while under construction. Their cafeteria, 4Roots, remained bustling, the tiny house outdoors closed on a weekday but interesting to know the gardens work to fill the kitchen’s “coffers,” and the four levels of science exploration and play available bound to make this a fun experience for children of all ages. Bonus, it’s a member of the Association of Science Technology Centers (ASTC) so has reciprocal memberships as a benefit to valued members with access to 350 museums and science centers across the country and overseas (including Fort Lauderdale’s MODS).
Enter from the back, at the cafeteria, and travel up to the second level to meet guest services and pay the entrance fee – or come across the bridge right to the second level. There’s a play area and exhibit hall right on that level.
The exhibit halls feature an array of interactive experiences, from playful oranges that reflect the real life Dr. Phillips’ passion for the native orange groves, with store and play areas for the kids, to a photography exposition exhibit from an Astro-photographer, a great idea for side pursuit or full time study.
Kids Town allows children seven and under to splash, explore, or tinker with slimy and slippery items. Stand and watch the children even for a little while and their joy conveys itself throughout the area.
