One of my favorite things about Science Museum Oklahoma – or as I’ll forever call it, the Omniplex – is that it essentially serves as two museums in one.
Not only does it function as a modern-day children’s science museum with hands-on learning exhibits that keep wondrous kids entertained and engaged, but thanks to its dated displays from the 1980s, it also doubles as a history and nostalgia museum that entertains parents.
You know, things like the Shadow Wall, the earthquake exhibit, and – my personal favorite, the Mighty Mouth – a giant, climbable fiberglass set of false teeth where kids can look at gross pictures of cavities, watch videos about dental visits, and most importantly, play 8-bit video games where they practice brushing teeth.
