  • This museum is beautiful! There is something here for everyone. The kids' interactive areas are updated every so often, so it doesn't get old. We love the fossil digging and gem mining. We learned about dinosaurs, how bicycles work, earthquakes, and much more ! We packed a lunch and ate under a large covered area with picnic tables and restrooms before we went in. I definitely recommend taking advantage of this area as well.
  • This is one of my favorite museums. Maybe because I’m a huge Dino fan! They not only have the Dino’s but a big aerospace section. Star Wars fan? They have The Science of Star Wars on May 4th. Expect to spend 4 hrs or more here! So much to look at and do! Very kid friendly. They have cool interactive things for ages 5 and up to play with and explore. Clean! Well maintained. Affordable. Adults $17 Children $13 Seniors $15 Members can go free. Active Military free They do sensory friendly weekends. Great for autistic kiddos. They do special exhibits so you’ll need to check their website for the dates.
