Science halls where kids touch and try everything, real early space capsules, and Discovery Rooms with a pretend vet clinic for toddlers.
A classic diner where the kids' meal comes in a toy car.
A scavenger hunt for kids (finish it for a prize), a quiet room for sensory breaks and a kids' audio tour read by LeVar Burton.

The crackling Tesla coil is the bit kids remember, then space exhibits, telescopes and planetarium shows with a live narrator.
Outdoor installations and an art-making activity, plus the galleries.
A T. rex growth series in the dinosaur hall, baby to full size. Then the gardens outside to burn off steam.
A double-decker trolley between the shops and the market, a dancing fountain and a big bookstore with a large children's section.
A wooden ark full of animals made from found objects. Kids climb, build, and even make a storm.
