Welcome to Cognition! Here are a few things to expect:

Every visit to Cognition has its own magic. Whether it's the crowd, our animals, or a new exhibit- no two days are the same. Families typically spend around 2 hours here on average. Feel free to bring snacks or a packed lunch. If you fancy something different, you're welcome to step out and enjoy one of the lovely restaurants nearby, then return to finish your stay.

What we are:

An interactive science playground captivating the community and lifelong learners.  Our mission is to be a fun place to expand minds through hands-on experiences for kids of all ages!

Museum-style format.

 A child care facility or a drop-off center (except for special programs). In order for us to accomplish our mission and keep Cognition a fun and safe place for everyone, our staff cannot extensively attend to your children.

Children must be under guardian care/ supervision.

Attendance Policy

• Adult is responsible for their children's supervision and behavior.

• Please help children follow Cognition's posted rules and respect the materials

• With approval, a child under 12 may be supervised by an older sibling or teenage sitter.

• Cog staff are happy to help support parents, but cannot take the role of care provider.
