点评:We used to love Da Vinci science center when it was at the old location. We were even members at one time. The old location had so many hands on activities for the kids. The new location is primarily screens! Sure, it is very cool. But in a world saturated with screens where we want our children to play and interact, it was disappointing. Anything interactive to do there not involving a screen does not matter because the kids just run to the next screen since they are everywhere & so distracting!
The shark exhibit was okay, but for the price a total let down. It was nothing special for the extra $9 per person. It should be included in the price. It is basically a walk through with more screens. The coolest part were the actual size displays of sharks.
The entire thing was completely overpriced. You can no longer bring food or drink to this location. We used to pack lunches and eat in the outdoor picnic area at the old location. The parking garages are advertised on the website. We tried the one directly across the street, it STARTS at $25 for ONE HOUR! NO thank you, this is Allentown not NYC! We did not enter and found street parking with a meter for $4.
When we were exploring the different levels of the museum, looking for something else to be a part of the day there, we almost got off at ground level from the elevator. We were rudelt yelled at by a woman that it was the wrong floor.
There are definitely some woke undertones as well if you notice things like that. Not my biggest complaint, but kind of annoying on top of everything else.
Sad to say we will not be spending our money there again, and definitely will not become members again.
翻译:当达芬奇科学中心还在旧址时,我们很喜欢它。我们甚至一度是会员。旧址为孩子们提供了许多动手活动。新址主要是屏幕!当然,这很酷。但在一个到处都是屏幕的世界里,我们希望孩子们玩耍和互动,这很令人失望。任何不涉及屏幕的互动活动都无关紧要,因为孩子们会跑到下一个屏幕,因为它们无处不在,让人分心!
鲨鱼展览还可以,但价格令人失望。每人多花 9 美元,没什么特别的。这应该包含在价格中。基本上就是通过更多屏幕进行参观。最酷的部分是鲨鱼的实际尺寸展示。
整个东西都定价过高。您不能再将食物或饮料带到这个地方。我们过去常常打包午餐,在旧址的户外野餐区吃饭。停车场在网站上有广告。我们尝试了街对面的那家,起价为 25 美元一小时!不用了,谢谢,这是阿伦敦,不是纽约!我们没有进去,而是找到了一个收费 4 美元的街边停车场。
当我们在探索博物馆的不同楼层,想找点别的东西来度过一天时,我们差点从电梯里出来,就在一楼。一个女人粗鲁地对我们大喊,说我们走错了楼层。
如果你注意到这样的事情,肯定也有一些清醒的暗示。这不是我最大的抱怨,但除此之外,这有点烦人。
很遗憾,我们不会再在那里花钱了,也绝对不会再成为会员了。
