    the only things I remember were the fetuses in the jars and there not being a lot of interactive stuff. I went in late 2003. the old cosi was a lot more fun ;-( This one was whitewashed and too sterile feeling. yes, FETUSES IN JARS. and also at COSI in columbus,oh there's 8 jars with fetuses of various stages in a body exibit there!!! I was there in 2004 and this one woman that was pregnant and also had a baby in a stroller that was next to use started freaking out and crying... ;-( poor woman. we both thought it was very disturbing. she was scared shitless. those fetuses are real to and have been in those jars for 20 yrs This was the most prominient thing that I remember about this place. creepy. THAT POOR WOMAN.

    Since they moved locations it seems to be more like the Nickelodeon TV channel exploded inside and less like a science museum. It still has ...

    I brought my girl scout troop here 3 years ago and they had the best time ever. They went non stop from open til close..... They had so much fun that we are going back this summer. From the theater to everything there is to see and do we didn't get to do everything because there was sooo much. We said we coud have spent two days there without a problem.

    Overview COSI has eight immersing environments where you can interact with the exhibits. While COSI is a fabulous place to run your children ragged with educational activities, it can be equally engaging and entertaining for adults. Whatever your age, go when you feel seriously playful and willing to learn a few new things. COSI has 110,000 square feet of space, so plan on a full day or two trips. The Experience The themed areas include Ocean, Gadgets, Life, Progress, Space and traveling exhibits. All of them give children hands-on experiences: in Gadgets, kids maneuver pulley chairs and in Ocean, they learn what it's like to be in a submarine. There are also three movie theaters and a simulator. Don't miss "Poseidon's Realm" in the Ocean World. Its gushing waters and dramatic lights are quite a spectacle.

    I brought my 7 yr old and we had a blast. The only thing is you need to plan for more than a couple of hours. It is a great time and we didn't get to see everything. Can't wait to go back with more time to explore and do the things over again we already did.

    This is a great attraction and I'd recommend planning to spend the entire day here. A few hours won't cut it. I took my Brownie Troop here and my family too. My favorite was Adventure--it's a chance to be Indiana Jones without the danger but with the right amount of action and suspense. The large screen movie was outta sight too.

    Cosi had an outsatnding Safety Services Department. Officers were very polite and extremely knowledgeable about Cosi and the surrounding area. They also patrol Cosi and the immediate riverfront area to make sure guests and Cosi staff are safe 24 hours a day 7 days a week! Learning was awesome through all of the exhibition areas. It was awesome.
