My son had his 5th birthday party today and our experience was great! The room was clean, spacious and right in front of everything. The staff were great on checking in on us every so often. when it got too hot they brought us fans, and when we needed chairs and high chairs they brought us extra. Great experience. Was really happy that us and our guest had access to the museum all day. Great staff, clean and help things go smoothly.

The Discovery Museum reminds me of the Exploratorium in San Francisco, on a much smaller scale of course. There are many hands on activities that are both entertaining and educational. I lucked opted to go on an adults only night which made the experience (for me anyways) that much better. People totally expect you to let kids go first, even when you waited in line to play with something! Check out their schedule if you are like me and have an aversion to the spawn, they have adult nights on a regular basis.

We LOVE the discovery museum! Great Kids events. Changing exhibits. Always something new every time we go. We have a membership there and it has paid for itself.

What an amazing addition for the Reno community. Five Hearts Preschool will definitely be making field trips to the Discovery Museum as it is set up so well for a day of preschool adventure and quality learning. The staff is wonderful!
