Review:

Sitting next to the Arkansas River in Wichita, Exploration Place is widely recognized as the best science center in Kansas. There are plenty of permanent exhibits to explore, including a Kansas in Miniature display and a shark exhibit with life-size shark models, and the Dome Theater regularly plays fascinating science films on its impressive 60-foot screen. There's also a special area in the museum for toddlers, and older children will particularly like the medieval-themed Where Kids Rule exhibit, which features over 60 hands-on activities designed to encourage kids to take an interest in math and science.
