Discovery Place Science - Charlotte

301 N Tryon St, Charlotte, NC 28202· $$· 10am–5pm

Steve’s take

Charlotte's science museum is right in uptown and the hands-on exhibits are designed for exactly the age range that's been losing it in your back seat for the past four hours. The rainforest dome has live butterflies landing on your kids. The physics labs let them build things and break things. If you're passing through Charlotte and the back seat is approaching DefCon 1, Discovery Place is the pressure release valve. They'll come out tired and happy.
