TELUS Spark
This science museum provides numerous hands-on opportunities to learn about topics ranging from technology to the brain. Children can learn about flotation in a water play area, crawl and climb in a climbing structure, design and make inventions, and stage a play at the Creative Kids Museum, which is designed for children ages 9 and younger. Live science demonstrations, as well as planetarium shows, are another draw for visitors.
While many recent visitors enjoyed the museum's interactive exhibits, others thought it was overpriced for what was on offer. Admission to the Dome Theatre, which screens planetarium shows and movies, is included in the overall admission ticket. TELUS Spark is approximately a 10-minute walk from the CTrain's Zoo station (off the blue line). The museum is generally open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. (until 9 p.m. on Fridays and 5 p.m. on Saturdays).
