Review of the Vancouver's Science World
It certainly entertained 3 of my kids as well as the adults on a rainy
Vancouver day. It is like going to an amusement park but with educational value.
We visited midweek when the local kids were still in school and it was like
having the place to ourselves. The skytrain is very close so getting there from
our hotel was very easy.
Review of the Vancouver's Science World
I thought this was going to be just some boring place for kids but was totally
wrong. I had a great time my 34 year old self. But, there was a toddler zone
which i want to get a seasons pass for because my daughter had so much fun in.
It was well set up and fenced in so i could just sit down and let her tear the
place up!Review of the Vancouver's Science World
I absolutely loved science world when I went there. It has so many things that
you can do there. There was this thing where you stap a peice of fabric around
the top of your head and you compete against another person to see who is more
relaxed. I do not know how it works but it does. There are also other
attractions inside the building like this other thing. There is a plastic box
bolted to the ground and anyone, no matter your size can fit in it. I tell you
this place is is massive. I didn't go though the whole place in one day. If I
had the opportunity to go for a second day, I would. From the outside, this
place is cool. It is just a massive dome that lights up at night.
I would definitely go again. This place rocks!
Review of the Vancouver's Science World
Science World is loaded with first-rate adventures for kids from toddler age to
early teens; you'll want to spend at least a couple of hours here. Throughout
the day, special shows, many with nature themes, are presented in the OMNIMAX
Theatre -- a huge projecting screen equipped with surround sound.
