Exploratorium

Learning about science has never been more fun than at this interactive San Francisco playground chock-full of exhibits that get kids up close and personal with the mysteries of Mother Nature. Curiosity is easily satisfied via onsite lab experiments that study stem cells or fruit flies under microscopes, while kids who love being grossed-out can sign-up for even wackier exploits (past instances have included drinking from a toilet and dissecting a cow’s eyeball). The littlest explorers shouldn’t miss the Tactile Dome either: This pitch-black labyrinth will really put their sense of touch to the test. www.exploratorium.edu
