Museum of Discovery and Science - Museum in Fort Lauderdale - 401 SW 2nd St, USA

Great interactive museum for kids of all ages. This is a two story complex with an attached imax theater. In our visit, several exhibits were closed, so make sure to check the website in case there was something you were hoping to do. A nice plus to this museum is that the two motion simulators were free and no additional cost like some other museums. Overall, it was a good place to spend about three hours of fun, including one of the documentary imax shows.

Love this museum! We had such a good time we wound up going back the next day😄. It’s great for adults and kids alike, it’s informative, interactive, and overall a lot of fun. I personally like taking my time when I go to museums, so I would say it took us about 3-4 hours to look through everything, but it’s really worth it. They had fun simulations like a mars adventure and a roller coaster. Kids love it here! The customer service was also great, everyone was professional and friendly. Definitely recommend!

We had an absolutely amazing experience. We went with our 3.5 yr old and 22 months old. They both loved it and were able to find new things to explore. There is a parking lot right across the street so you can pay for parking and cross the street. We loved all the different activities and the sprouting stem room is excellent for younger kids (there’s a diaper change station with wipes and tons of toys in the room). There was also a story time for the kids. We really enjoyed the play session especially with the water experiments and outdoors . It’s also amazing that it includes imax tickets. We watched the Blue Whale and it was wonderful. Everyone was so helpful and kind.

Simply a great museum. Attached IMAX, separate areas for specific learning centers, more "active" and interactive learning museum than most. Excellent outdoor area as well. Warrants a family membership. Rotating exhibitions are frequent and diverse. Staff is generally a cut above. Only bad thing is their food offerings.

Exploring MODS with my little one was incredible! The new toddler area, Sprouts, is a blast - so many hands-on activities for fun learning. The museum is spotless and the exhibits are diverse, from Florida nature to a LEGO and STEM zone. Plus, an IMAX theater!

This place was awesome. My family has a science museum membership in Maryland and it gave us access here. This museum made science and discovery FUN and EDUCATIONAL! We burned 6 hours there and the kids didn't want to leave. I highly recommend!

I have seen many otters, but the pair of otters here are incredibly interactive ! There is also this sweet turtle that is incredibly responsive to humans in the ecological portion of the museum. I loved the displays given by Florida Power Light. My husband and I didn't have any time to see the 4D shows, but we did finish most of the exhibit quickly as we didn't have our kids. The museum is truly designed with kids in mind, and with that being said I can't wait to bring mine!

We have 2 teenagers and this is definitely geared towards littles. But we still had a good time. Some of the habitats are really small and a few were covered in dust on the inside. We felt pretty bad for the animals living in them.
