\"Gravity<\/a>The temperature is starting to soar, and so are the kids! – With the closure of the school year.<\/p>\n

Beat the heat with some “cool” kid entertainment at the Museum of Discovery and Science <\/a> right in the heart of Ft. Lauderdale<\/a>.<\/p>\n

From the moment you arrive in the courtyard, their attention’s will be captivated by the Great Gravity<\/strong> Clock,<\/strong> a 52 foot kinetic energy sculpture, which ticks, clicks, whizzes and whooshes as balls roll around the rails in rhythmic motion to tell time.<\/p>\n

Make sure you have some coins handy, to make a wish in the fountain!<\/p>\n

Hold on tight, ’cause the moment you walk thru the doors, this is where the sensory overload will kick in and the kids will be off in all directions.<\/p>\n

On the first floor, you have an indoor playground\/discovery area where children can climb a tree, splash with water, sail a boat, build walls on a house and pick oranges. I am not quite sure why but the kids seem to go gaga for the orange<\/strong> grove activity thingy<\/strong>…(appropriate for age 6 and under)<\/p>\n

Then, you have creatures…There are sharks, sting rays, turtles and bats<\/strong> as well as much more for you to explore in caverns and caves.<\/p>\n

Upstairs is where it gets a little more “geeky” and geared more for the older kids, but they have lots of interactive exhibits which the parents can join in too…<\/p>\n

My favorite is the Mission to Mars rocket simulated rocket ride<\/strong>…HOLD ON!!!<\/p>\n

And to top it off they have an IMAX Theatre<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

The general admission to the Museum is $10 for adults and $8 for kids, but if you are a local, I highly recommend purchasing an annual membership. $95 gets 2 adults and your kid(s) into the museum for a year, with 4 complimentary guest passes and a 2 complimentary IMAX passes and you also have free access to 280 museums worldwide-major deal and no brain-er! (Other types available)…<\/p>\n

All in all, it is a fantastic place for family fun, and afterwards, when the heat has died down-you can take a lesiurely stroll down Riverwalk<\/a> and grab a bite to eat!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
