"A must to do in Pittsburgh"
This science center is amazing! There is something for all ages.
We loved it so much we skipped the zoo on the last day of our vacation and went here again. It is very hands on, lots of rooms, displays and interactives.
The omniplex is worth a visit--I've never seen anything like it. And its a great way to unwind and regroup (we saw the show right after lunch when the younger kids with us were getting worn out and cranky). Its a great way to recharge for the second round.
We have been to a lot of sciece centers and have one in our home town--this is our favorite by far. Our son's favorites were the robots.

"Great fun for the whole family"
Carnegie Science Center is a great place for young and old alike. There is so much to do and you don't have to worry about anything getting broken. We generally do all of the hands on activities and finish the day with one of the Omni Max movies to unwind. Pittsburgh is a great city to visit with a lot of fun family activities.

"Fun with the Family"
Carnegie Science Center connects science and technology to everyday life in a fun way. With a four-story OMNIMAX Theater, an interactive Planetarium, the largest sports science exhibit in the country, a real World War II submarine, the world’s best model railroad display, three live demonstration theaters, and a building full of 400 hands-on exhibits, the Science Center brings the world of science alive for visitors of all ages.

"Another Biased Review :0)"
Oh how we love visiting the Carnegie Science Center. I've been coming here since I was a kid. Now I take my own kids. They love it. You can touch everything! The Omnimax is still a big attraction and now they let you buy snacks! The model railroad is a favorite for all kids big and small. Many of the exhibits have been there a long while, but they never cease to entertain my kids (or me for that matter). The Submarine is worth skipping, and the food as well (Jump back in the car and head to Atria's at PNC Park).
