There was so much more than we expected. My kids got tired before we finished it all! The virtual reality games were a big hit with them. Little unexpected hits around each corner.

Great for children, games and exhibits! I enjoyed the art exhibition too. Also, It holds history on Costa Ricas jail system previously located there. Interesting place!

It was difficult to tell the difference between this and the childrens museum. I think I saw both for the price of one. With a guide.

This place used to be nice, now is falling apart. It needs some love and attention. In the reading room, they dont have one single book for kids, is all for adults. I found economy books, marketing, coding....nothing really good for the little ones. The others exhibitions are incomplete. They are missing the parts to complete the games. For example, in the Egyptian room there are a couple of games that need dices, but no dices, so no sense on keeping that game there. The costumes are stinky and dirty. In general this place needs some love.

Looking for dinosaurs, curiosities, an upside down mirrored optical illusion? This place has got everything. Even an indoors shopping-conscious food shopping everything commissioned by Walmart!

I find it a bit weird that the emphasis of the experience revolves around corporations and public institutions. One would expect a greater focus on scientific attractions. Also the museum was lacking in maintenance. In spite of that kids had an amazing time.
