We visited with out grandkids, 6 and 5. We combined it with a visit to Lincoln Park Zoo, which is 2 blocks south. They were fascinated with the exhibit about water, in part because of the boat. They also enjoyed the climate change section, primarily because of the opportunity to be the weatherperson on the video screen. Perhaps the best part was the release of the butterflies in the butterfly garden. Worth another visit soon. And, we are able to take the bus--and adventure for them and nice break for Pop.

Fun place to take my child. It has a lot of activities that kept him entertained. The butterfly greenhouse was wonderful experience. Would love to return when the weather was nice to explore the surrounding outdoor grounds.

You could park at the Lincoln Park Zoo just a street away. It is 10 dollars but close by.
I would say primarily for kids, but the butterfly garden & the art are definitely worth the visit.
