To make this experience better create an online link to redeem the Groupon. Redeeming in person isn't necessary as a family can only have one membership. At the very least members renewing their membership should be able to renew online.

The Maryland Science Center annual memebership is one of the BEST purchases that I make all year for my children! I am a single Mom of a 4, 5 and 6 year old....so budgeting is extremely important to me! And this purchase is the BEST budget friendly purchase and gives us endless fun whenever we want to drop into the Science Center. I LOVE THIS PURCHASE!!! The discounts that you get within the center on gifts, food, IMAX and special events are truly an incredile added bonus. I added this buy to my budget parenting blog/social media accounts because it is THAT AWESOME!

About Maryland Science Center
Maryland Science Center spurred from an amateur scientific society that formed in the late 1700s. This society, known as the Maryland Academy of Sciences, met to discuss scientific papers on astronomy, botany, zoology, and more. When the early 20th century brought on more and more scientific and technical expansions, the Academy took on the role of educating the public about it. They designed exhibits to demonstrate these changes, which eventually developed into the Maryland Science Center. Today, the center, complete with interactive exhibits and a planetarium, remains a public resource for science and technology.
- Size: Across three levels, the facility includes 170,000 square feet of exhibits along with a planetarium and observatory.
- Eye Catcher: Full-size skeletons and casts of a fossilized T. Rex and Astrodon complete the 12-plus life-size dinosaurs on display in the open-hall Dinosaur Mysteries exhibit.
- Permanent Mainstay: Newton’s Alley showcases Sir Isaac’s principles with interactive exhibits that include creating a water vortex, touching a cloud, and seeing sound.
- Don't Miss: The year-round rooftop observatory lets astronomy enthusiasts explore the star-filled nighttime sky through a computer-controlled telescope.
- Hands-On Experiments: Visitors work together as electrical engineers in the Power Up exhibit, turning a generator to power-up various household items and maintaining an electrical grid for a whole city.
