Fort Lauderdale's Museum of Discovery and Science offers a family-focused introduction to science through exhibitions and interactive experiences.
Its IMAX theatre adds another possible element to the visit, with programming that extends beyond the museum's galleries.
Check the current exhibits and film schedule before arriving. Theatre showtimes and ticket arrangements can differ from museum access, so plan around the specific experiences your group wants rather than assuming one admission covers everything.
