About this adventure
Great Lakes Science Center welcomes families for an unforgettable weekend exploring interactive STEM galleries and the official NASA Glenn Visitor Center. Kids can step inside the genuine Skylab 3 Apollo command module, test aerodynamic wings in wind tunnels, generate static electricity, and explore renewable energy exhibits overlooking Lake Erie. Special family workshop tables feature take-apart engineering stations where children examine gearboxes and build DIY circuitry. The facility is exceptionally stroller-friendly with expansive elevators, wide ramps connecting multiple levels, spacious gender-neutral family restrooms with padded Koala Kare changing stations, and a quiet lactation pod for nursing mothers located on Level 1. The Science Center cafe offers healthy child meal combos and booster seats.
