Discovery World is a nice place with some really nice exhibits. I love the Great Lakes experience which occurs right when you walk in. If you don't know what to expect you may walk right past it and not see the attraction, though it is big. If you wait you will see a storm erupt over the lakes, complete with... More

What a great place to spend the day with your kids! There's something unique, industrious, marvelous and intriguing at every corner of this great science institution! All of us were drawn to the aquariums and touch pools and the industrial design machines. A family membership is a great idea if you plan on taking a day-trip to Milwaukee a couple... More

We went here for an afternoon of entertainment and were not disappointed. We were able to play with all sorts of things from a realistic plane simulation, to a 3-D planet experience. We were able to interact with musical instruments and see how they work. We explored inside of a boat and touched huge replicas of the great lakes. We... More

Great place for 2-3 hours for 8 year old boys. There was plenty of hands on things for them to experience- operate a flight simulator, sit on a bed of 3600 nails, The aquarium area is fund to walk around-makes you feel like you are in the aquarium with the fish. There is a chance to touch stingrays and sharks... More

I love this museum. It is very creative and a great teaching musuem. The museum is doing a terrific job of teaching kids from ages 3 to 22 years old in a fun way but it is also teaching adults as well. The musem Introduces technology in the fields of industry, music, medical, aviation, Great Lakes and fresh water. It... More

This museum has great potential to help young people get enthusiastic about science, and educate and entertain adults as well. As an engineer, I was happy to see many "interactive" exhibits. Unfortunately, very few offer any explanation of what they are, how they work, or why they're relevant. Kids push a button, something happens, they ask their parents "why," parent... More

We visited the Discovery World Museum in Milwaukee over Spring Break, and I have to say, it was a pricey visit ($84) just to be barely mildly entertained. The museum falls short on creativity, interactive opportunities for the younger kids, and interesting facts for the teens and adults. Our kids are 13, 11, and 8. The 8 year old was... More

Discovery World was a great experience for our boys (ages 7 and 10). They have been to many children's and science museums, but Discovery World occupied them for the better part of a day. We particularly loved the bed of nails and all the interactive science exhibits, which we found easy to use and a bit different than anything we'd... More

I went there with my kids and we all had a great experience! Cool aquarium, great science sights. Checkout the robotic section where they produce your toy with the dream machine.
