Our take
4/5This museum suits a birthday child who enjoys exploring, with a private room for the celebration. The DIY package includes museum admission for 25 people and one hour in the party room. Themed, Digital Dome and Tinker options give families other ways to organize the day, while permission to bring food and drinks adds flexibility.
The DIY price is $250 for nonmembers or $225 for members. Count accompanying adults in the 25 admissions, and budget $10 for each extra guest. Reserve at least two weeks ahead, allow for the $100 nonrefundable deposit, and note that Tinker parties run only on Saturdays at 11 a.m.
