This place is awful. There arent many things for kids to do. When we attended for a Saturday event, they still hadnt started 15 minutes after it was supposed to begin. Theres dust and dirt on everything. The employees didnt know what was going on. This business seems like someone threw a few science things in a room and call it a science learning experience. Terrible terrible experience.

For Lafayette, it's not terrible. We went for a special event on a weekend and it pretty much was what we were expecting. Keep your expectations low and you'll be happy with your experience. Don't expect an Indianapolis Children's Museum, or Chicago Science and Industry. It's more like a play date in someone's basement or garage.

This is a gem of a little place for small children. Although it isn't very large, they do recruit volunteers from the local community and graduate students and professors from Purdue to show cool things to the kids, like reptiles, chemistry, biology, and physics. They also have a space upstairs for creative and imaginative play. It's just a bunch of random toys, but kids go nuts up there. They are also part of the ASTC Passport program, so you can get access to a lot of other bigger museums with just a membership to this one. You can't really compare this place to the bigger places like the Indianapolis Children's Museum or the Chicago Children's museum. Different scale and different purpose. You don't drive 3 hours to come visit Imagination Station. This is more for locals or families who happen to be in the area and need something to do for a couple of hours.

Wonderful! Fun! Friendly! We had a blast. The 5 year old, the 15 year old, and even the 65 year old, we all had fun. The staff were so kind, the exhibits were hands on and informative! If you're in Lafayette, check it out!
