Great place to take the Grandkids. Take a change of clothes, they WILL get wet lol. Gadgets in the water area could be built better so they turn easier and more balls needed in the dry area next to water play area, and MORE creativity in the lite bright room. Other than that...really great place

This was an incredible experience! There are a variety of activities, from a neighborhood where kids can experience different Portland locations to a science floor on the 3rd level where kids can experiment with water, light, and air. Be prepared for your kid to get wet and bring a change of top for them! There’s also a quiet reading room and a nursing room for those with little ones. Don’t forget to check out their productions at their fabulous theater!

Great place to bring children! Id say 10 and under is best, maybe even 7. Our two daughters had a blast though! We have a 10y/o and a 1y/o our youngest had the time of her life while our oldest was mostly bored. Loved the little toddler section, as well as the aquariums! Theres a little reading room off the aquarium with a live beehive! Super cool! The splash room was the biggest hit beside the lightbright room! Overall it was totally worth the money! Did suck having to pay for parking but it wasn't outrageous, $2 per hour. Visit the website before you go and look at the discount section, most library's carry discounted tickets to a lot of places around Maine!

Such an amazing place to being the little ones. I bought memberships as a gift for my nieces and they beg to go here. The exhibits are all very well thought out. Always so much to see, touch, and learn. Plus they do a wonderful job of changing things up to keep them fresh. We've also visited the theatre, which was magical. They have a clever sound proof room behind the seating area so that if your little needs a break or just needs to move their body you can still hear and observe the show without disrupting others 😊 The maker space is definitely my nieces favorite spot. Just lots of objects and tools to craft and create with, to her little hearts content. We've literally spent an entire block of crafting time here, let them clean up and ready it again, and then gone back for more.
