Kids – and adults in touch with their inner child – will have a ball in 'Louisiana's Science Center,' an enormous museum full of interactive exhibitions that cover astronomy, geology, biology and local ecosystems. There's an on-site IMAX theater and the POP (Power of Play) museum, which is specifically aimed at kids eight and under.
