Matig. Het is duidelijk een museum wat meer voor kinderen bedoeld is. Zoals zo vaak in een "interactief museum" is een aanzienlijk deel van de te bedienen objecten onklaar en er ontbreekt eigenlijk ook een duidelijke lijn. Er is veel meer te vertellen en te laten zien over een zó breed onderwerp. Veel dingen zijn op ooghoogte voor kleuters, zodat je als volwassene met rugpijn weer buiten komt. Ook instructie zou op een aantal plekken duidelijker mogen zijn.
