    This place is absolutely amazing. There are so many interesting things to explore. The place is divided into a few sections suitable for different age groups which is great. It's a very safe environment too. This place is a must visit. One suggestion I would give is that it would be great to add more instructions to explain the theories behind the experiments so kids can actually learn some science.

    Have attended parties and just taken the kids along. They ALWAYS love it. Lots of things to do and explore. It’s a great opportunity to just try something and tweak it if you need, and try again. Bubbles, rocket and paper plane launches are always popular and fun. We also love the stop motion! Take you time wandering around and come ready to have a go.

    Great activity venue for children of all age. We have a one yr old and two yr old. Change room was very clean. Both of them enjoy the young children area. They particularly enjoyed the bubble experience. Would advice parents to bring a set of change of cloth.

    Our son's 6th birthday party was a hit! Everyone had an amazing time and raved about it (kids and adults alike). A huge thank you to Twisted Science for making Xavier's special day so memorable and amazing. A HUGE shout out to our party host Dan who was not only great, awesome and amazing... he was absolutely phenomenal!!! The best kids party host I've seen and experienced by far. Thank you Dan - you're the best! P.S. say hi to Lucy for us 😊

    My daughter absolutely loves this place. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Everything is so well laid out and modern. The exhibits are both educational and fun for kids. One of the staff members, Maria, was great at teaching my daughter to make bubbles and showing her the lizards. It was a highlight of our visit. We ended up getting membership as it's easy to spend hours at a time here.

    The best place in Melbourne to take kids. There are lots of good places, but this is now or favorite. So much to do, and some activities we would be happy to do all season.

    Twisted science is a really fun day out! My only complaint is that the sessions aren't long enough. We will have to go back again to see it all. There is a huge range of experiences for the whole family and I loved the dedicated smaller kids area where my 4 year old was able to enagge with the experiments without much adult help which she loved! Edit. We just went back and it was so much fun again! Cannot recommend highly enough

    This place is amazing!!!! I’ve been twice with my kids and we have all loved it. Today’s visit blew my expectation out of the water. There was a lovely lady, Maria, who works there and she was just fantastic! She spent so much time with my kids showing them around and helping them with all the learning stations. She was just amazing. Can’t say enough nice things about her. So thankful we went on a day she was working!!! We will definitely be back and most likely will get membership.

    I took my 3 year toddler here thinking a lot of the activities would be too advanced for him but we both ended up having so much fun here! The staff here were so attentive and friendly (better than most places I’ve been to). My only feedback would be it would be good to close up the gap under the railing leading to the ramp (platform area). My toddler just crawled under it and ran off, he was also swinging from them at one stage.

    Very nice place to visit. The kids loved it (1.5 and 3.5). Lots of interactive and interesting activities. I have taken off 1 star due to no small kids toilets which is weird in a kids centric place and secondly some of the sections weren’t topped up for example the bubble solution and the equipment needed to build your own car.

    Kids had so many fun at this place, abd they can learn something too. I really want to give 6 stars if I can. My daughter likes the bubbles so much and wanted to play all day there. She had ended up with all wet :) The ticket is a bit expensive but worth it. The only thing could be improved is that there is no air conditioning system in the building. It was hot and humid.

    Twisted Science Moorabbin was amazing! My 11 year old and 10 year old loved it. There were plenty of activities to do and the staff were lovely. Having 2 different areas (blue and green) meant that it was not too crowded. The rest area was perfect to sit for a coffee. And the pre-school (tangerine) area was great for my nearly one-year old nephew. We will definitely be back.

    We explored the Tangerine area which for toddlers age today! Awesome place, my kid loved it! This really is a great option if you feel a bit too much to go to Indoor playground. I also like the place as it’s clean, parents room has microwave in case you need to use, clean change table area, private nursing corner with curtain! We will come back!

    Twisted Science. It's fantastic! I've got two kids under 10 and they both have so much fun here. We've been a few times and there's always some new way to explore the place. They love the amazing transforming sand, the giant bubbles, the pixel play, the reptile encounter, eating bugs, making fast cars, shooting rockets, creating stop animation, building carts and castles, writing with light, testing their reflexes and that's not even mentioning 50 other hands-on activities. It's a very safe space too where the staff are very attentive and the kids can really play and have fun. My 4 year old loves the tangerine room and my 6 year old has the time of her life in the blue and green rooms. They both have different interests and are captivated for hours. Highly recommend! We have been to both sold out sessions and quiet sessions, even at its most busy it is not crowded or hectic. There's so much to do. Super impressed that they don't just sell more tickets and pack it out. It means the kids, no matter how busy, have a great time. 10/10. We will be back many times! I have a great time there too by the way. It's a creative and hands on learning experience that is also fun, surprising and challenging in all the right ways. There is also a cafe, lots of parking and a small science based gift shop.

    We visited this hidden gem today and had an awesome experience!! The TwistED Science is located in Moorabin, which is the kids science museum and it has so many activities for kids involving art, science, technology, music, sensory play and even adults can have fun too!! The staffs are really friendly and taught us how to operate all the activities and we had a great time. TwistED science floor is split in to three main areas: Blue, Green and Tangerine . Blue and green are general admission areas. While tangerine is a private area designed especially for pre-school children - no big kids allowed! This indoor fun activity exhibit will be a big hit for an incredible family experience !! Definitely a must visit place for hours of fun and the prices are cheap too!!

    Very easy to get there with plenty of car parking space and conveniently close to the beach. Staff was very friendly and since this was our first visit they kindly gave us information about the activities and schedule. There is plenty of experiments and they were all in good functioning state. I would say the price was reasonable if you are planning to explore everything and stay for a few hours. It's recommended for kids in school age. The only observation is the air conditioning needs to improve, the afternoon was mildly hot outside and the quality of the air inside becomes dense not good for preventing catching a Covid. Apart from that, we are definitely coming back again in future.

    This is a hidden jewell for kids entertainment. My 6 year old grandson had a great time. It was not overly busy, which was great. My only disappointment was the lack of anything healthy to eat in the Cafe. Some fresh sandwich options would have been great. Overall a very positive experience.

  • 5/5 Pete S. 6 months ago on Google
    Unforgettable day out. The tickets are for three hours, we used the entire allocation and absolutely loved it. Kids had a ball and adults even more so.

  • 5/5 Marcus P. 6 months ago on Google
    Twisted Science was an amazing hands on experience that was direct to the learning areas of the curriculum. All the students had a wonderful time. We would definitely recommend it to another school. The venue was clean and professionally run.

    My daughter-in-law, 2 granddaughters 6 & 2yrs old & myself...nanny, went to Moorabbin TwistED Science yesterday, Friday and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Firstly, the staff were so warm and welcoming with smiles from all and ready to guide us on our next adventure. This place offers so much fun and 3hrs was plenty of time. A few schools arrived whilst there and did not impede on our fun, so much organised for them as well. Cafe has lots to offer and milkshakes with Fairy floss delicious. Toilets sparkling clean and sanitiser stations for us all to use Thankyou to all involved, marvellous staff, great venue, we'll be back for more.

    Amazing place, my teen girl and I all have happy time here. The staff is very nice and cafe is delicious 😋

    Great afternoon with grandkids. Its 3 hours and was plenty of time for all of us. Take your own lunch .

  • 5/5 Laura J. 9 months ago on Google
    This place is AMAZING! Even after 3 hours there, we happily could’ve stayed for longer! My 4.5 year old had an absolute blast and so did I! Fun for all the family - the area for under 5s was brilliant and we loved the areas for older guests too. So much to do, everything is hands on and the staff were lovely, friendly and enthusiastic. Everything was clean and tidy and it was just a pleasure to visit here. I also hugely appreciated that they cap their visitor numbers, so it didn’t feel crowded at all; we could play with everything without having to wait in queues. Would highly recommend this place and we’ll be back again for sure! 😊

    I did like this. Similar to a small scienceworks and my 5yo had lots of fun. There were seperate areas for babies and toddlers. Just wish it wasnt so far away from us.

  • 5/5 Terrence V. 11 months ago on Google
    Best place to escape your kids and yourself from the digital world. I being an adult enjoyed the different activities especially the air vortex tunnel and the upside down room. My creative mind takes me back being a kid again making a chopper origami and us acting like Spiderman.

  • 5/5 Peter E. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply amazing. Perfect for 3 full hours of touching, playing, learning and fun. I can highly recommend it for under 10s and the bigger kids (adults) have a great time too. It's well worth the seemingly expensive entry fee!!

  • 5/5 Simon v. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic! I was hoping it would be good and somewhat like scienceworks, but it was better! Heaps to do, never got bored, wasn't too crowded, kids had an absolute ball. Didn't want to leave at the end.

  • 5/5 Joy M (. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place fantastic interactive activities fun for all ages comfortable seating area for having a snack or lunch, an great that you can bring your own lunch or buy something on site. Gift shop has many affordable interesting souvenirs.

  • 5/5 Peter W. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff were friendly and informative. Lots of very interesting activity centres to jump into. Challenges galore for kids to explore and learn from. Ideal for kids from toddlers to teenagers. Lots of us oldies got into the activities too.
