Home to a planetarium, an Omnimax theater, a former Navy submarine (the USS Blueback) and five exhibit halls, a family could easily spend an entire day at OMSI. The Science Playground is designed for children ages 6 and under. Make sure kids use the waterproof aprons or they’ll get soaked. Older children will be attracted to the hands-on displays at the interactive labs, like feeling an earthquake and learning about physics in Turbine Hall.
