Reviews of Tommy Bartlett Exploratory
"I have driven past this place so many times without much interest - I didn't know what it was - but the Kalahari gave my family complementary passes to check it out, so we did. My kids, age 5 through 10, universally said this hands-on science museum was their favorite part of our Dells trip! (They said they wish they had spent more time here and less at the waterpark!) We could have easily spent an entire day here, checking out the various interactive exhibits on light, sound, illusions, center of mass, electricity, simple machines, robotics, space exploration, and so much more. My favorite part was that it had a gigantic variety of fundamental lessons that were engaging and got my kids excited to learn. (I had fun too!) It reminded me of classical museums from my childhood where the focus was to teach a love of learning and fundamental truths. It's a bit of an older style of museum, but I loved that about it - the focus is on showing how cool, fun, and mind-bending science fundamentals can be... and in so doing, it sparks an interest in the visitors to learn even more. Many modern museums have largely pivoted away from teaching a love of science and foundational concepts in favor of focusing on political agendas to grab federal funding. For example, while THIS museum teaches the power of a lever and how cool levers are. In contrast, a more modern museum might focus on the fact that people of all genders, pronouns, and colors can use levers while displaying pictures of various underrepresented users of levers next to the exhibit. This museum doesn't dwell on those tangential distractions but simply focuses on how cool science can be. Last but not least, the workers were knowledgeable, kind, and engaging with my kids - The staff even stayed open after hours because, as they explained to me, "your kids really seemed to be enjoying themselves and we [the staff] weren't in a rush to kick you out and go home". That act did wonders to restore my faith in humanity. I loved every part of this gem of a museum and hope to be back again - Hopefully, with even more family next time!"
"Our 1st time here was epic! We love museums & this is by far our favorite interactive museum we have ever been too! We travel so much & we are always looking for interactive. We are so happy we found this. The staff were super sweet. It was very clean inside. My son loved it! You get to lift a truck, learn so much about science and there was so much to do. I'd recommend atleast give yourself 3 hrs in my opinion. You have to go here. It was a blast. My son loved the robots & moving them around."
"Engaging, timeless fun and learning for us parents and our children ages 5 to 15. We spent about 4 hours there, with experiments to try and challenges to solve at every turn."
"We spent almost 3 hours here, and we didn't even notice how time flew. Absolutely amazing science entertainment center. Frankly, I didn't want to leave. Kids were busy all the time. Three hours of exploration and discoveries. Love it. Thank you so much!"
"This was a fun little experience for my family. We were staying in the Dells over spring break and looking for something to do. Our hotel gave us free passes, so we had to check it out. Turns out, I would've paid the entrance fee. So many neat interactive science stations that you can explore at your own pace. Some of the things could definitely use an update, but most of it was super cool and fun for my kids. I especially liked the Soviet space station. The gentleman working there was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend stopping here if you are in the Dells looking for a short family activity."
