We are the spark of joy in a child’s eyes when they make a connection with a living creature. We are the sudden and satisfying “Aha” when you discover something you didn’t even know you were looking for. We are the beginning of your lifelong learning adventure.
Experience science beyond the classroom! Enjoy engaging labs and experiences that cater to all learners, making field trips an educational adventure. From professional development to scholarship opportunities, our team is dedicated to supporting educators both inside and outside the classroom.
When you support Discovery World, you help us enhance our experience and enrich the quality of science education in Milwaukee and beyond. From caring for our creatures to feeding hungry minds, your donation makes all the difference.
Operate an air-powered dinosaur at Innovation Station or pilot a virtual plane at our popular Flight Simulator. You can create a thunderstorm over the Great Lakes, create your own music, and more. We’ve got virtual reality, a creative design lab, a replica ship, and all kinds of adventures waiting for you and your friends.
Many of our experiences are tailored for tiny hands and big imaginations, inviting early learners to dive into the mysteries of deep sea or build their own wonderland. We believe in the power of play to inspire a love for learning.
