Absolutely amazing place to visit, especially for children. I visit most often during the summer in the late morning to early afternoon. There is little to no wait time for entry. Great to get some outside time and lots of walking, with fun and educational exhibits for the kids. Growing up, we'd go here on field trips fairly often between 1st and 5th grade, and everyone always thought it was a lot of fun.

Each and every time we visit the center it never ceases to amaze us. At certain locations there is a need for personal interaction with staff providing more information and answering questions. Static exhibits are boring and uninteresting. The animated prehistoric reptiles were stimulating. An impromptu meeting with staffer handling an injured raptor and the information she provided while standing in the rain was exceptional. Please watch your prices!

As a NH Guide, I visited the Science Center this week with a tour group from Pennsylvania. We enjoyed a talk by Victoria, one of the Center's Naturalists, on three of the animals in their care. My group was genuinely excited to learn so many interesting facts and Victoria kept everyone's attention, especially when she introduced us to Skunk 24. Not to be out done, we all enjoyed the presentation on the Blandings turtle and the Barred Owl. All positive comments from my group as we left the Center that day. Great program!

I wish I took the kids here when they were little! What a gem of a science center! The displays are very well planned and executed. The pathways and gardens are delightful. We really like that the animals have such large enclosures. The dinosaur special exhibit is really fun. Plenty of climbing and exploring for littles. Helpful, friendly staff/volunteers. The area around the park is really pretty too. I am looking forward to our next visit!
