Hmmm, there is an area on the second floor I think would interest 13-year-old boys: you can measure how high you jump and how long you jump. They also have some science models about earthquakes, etc. An area above that also has some exhibits that might be of interest. You might check the IMAX movies (at extra cost) to see if they would be of interest. So--the 13-year-olds would find that interesting but they would not be entertained for nearly as long as younger kids would be. There could be an hour of interest if you want to spend the money for a short time. There's a company that does a scavenger hunt in Louisville (can't think of the name) and that might be of interest, as might one of the Break-out Rooms where a group of up to 8 has an hour to find clues to earn the key to get out of the room. Good luck and have fun.
