![]() The Boston Children's Museum is three floors of interactive fun, especially for kids under the age of 10, with the three-storey climbing structure and the bubbles exhibit especially hard for children to resist. These shows are worth the wait – and an ideal opportunity for kids (and parents) to sit and take a breather. But Heyworth says the real highlight is the Marine Mammal Center, where sea lions show off their intelligence and athleticism during scheduled demonstrations. Have your camera ready! The aquarium's centrepiece is the enormous cylindrical saltwater tank that allows kids to spy on the creatures of the coral reef at every depth. Exhibits focus on hands-on activities that allow for discovery through play.Īt the New England Aquarium, Heyworth notes that the fun starts before you enter, as two families of wonderfully playful and personable harbor seals live in a large glass enclosure right by the front doors. In fact, it's restricted to kids aged eight and under, with a limited number admitted. Elsewhere, The Discovery Center is a favourite for younger children. The show is loud so it might be too much for the littlest ears, but older kids will love it. At the Museum of Science, Heyworth recommends the Theater of Electricity, a massive Van der Graaf generator (the world's largest) that simulates a thunder and lightning storm, demonstrating how and why it happens and how to stay safe.
