Review for Emerald Coast Science Center, Fort Walton Beach, FL, USA
I am a board member, but I am also a parent of 2 preschoolers who love the science center. It has many fun, interactive, and educational displays. My wife brought her MOPS group through as a field trip one day. The kids had a blast looking at the animals, playing in the bubble room, learning about the human body, looking at the optical illusions, etc. Some of the displays need updating, but all in all Jamie et al do an excellent job educating and entertaining our kids. In addition, the Science Center has excellent extra curricular activities, including FCAT prep, birthday parties, family science nights, and astronomy courses... Very much worth checking it.
