Kids had a blast playing with the giant calculator. As well as learning different things about water processes. A small museum with lots of hands on activities for all ages. Great Time!!!!

So informative! What an interesting way to educate the public about waste water! There are so many interesting activities for kids and adults are probably going to learn a lot here too.

So cool. My kids enjoyed the interactive exhibits and learned a lot about wastewater treatment. We came on a Saturday, so there was an educational event in the classroom. The center wasn't very busy, so we were able to see every exhibit and do multiple...Read More

It was empty when we came here, we learned a lot, and our 2 year old had a blast! Especially with the toilet 😂 Staff are really friendly, and they even had a scavenger hunt for our daughter with a prize at the end!

Very small, but very informational. I don't believe this is a good place for young kids to learn, even though it has activities to learn about the water treatment process. There is an awesome interactive calculator to show how much water is used and consumed...Read More
