Museum of Science and Industry - expert review
The beloved MSI is one of the most visited sites in Chicago, and for good reason. The sprawling open space has 2,000 exhibits on three floors, with new exhibits exploring different technologies being added constantly. The museum's high-tech interior is hidden by the classical revival exterior; it wa...

This is a great place for kids. They have a lot of hands-on things. They offer rooms with old fashioned phones (you can call the other person and hear them as the phone sounded in those days) and an Incubater with chicks (this is good for about 20min. They just watch the egg slowly cracking open. Th...

(* parking garage fees of $7.75) When I was a kid, this was my favorite place ! Real Airplanes hang from the ceiling as if they are divebombing you from a concrete sky.

This was a great place for kids to learn. We homeschool our children and there were so many exhibits that dealt with the curriculum we've already covered and some that we still have to cover. The cool, but grossest part were the human slices and embryo/fetuses. They have a display of embryo/fetuses ...

I couldn't wait to go back to this museum. I remembered being in awe of everything as a child. What a disappointment. The musuem is in desperate need of some renovations. A lot of the exhibits were broken. I could definitely tell its prime was back when I was a child. I'm sure it would still be very...

The Museum of Science and Industry is one of the best museums in Chicago, and that?™s saying a lot. There are exhibits for both the young and old here! It isn?™t a stuffy old museum that requires you to be quiet and doesn?™t allow you to touch. No, here you are allowed to walk through the human hear...
