I took my 9 year old and 5 year old and we stayed from open to close and still had things we didn't get to do. The outside sports area is amazing. They had so much fun they wanted to return the following day. Parking was free, food was a little pricey but was as expected. You can bring your own inside the dining area. The place was clean and employees were so friendly.

I attend with children ranging from 8-12 years old. At first they seem interested but the longer we stayed, they seemed to grow more bored. The museum is HUGE and it's easy to spend hours there if you visit each exhibit. For an adult and 1 child, admission was close to 60$. Parking was free (which is a plus). As soon as you walk in, there's a Cafe area and it includes a Starbucks. Overall it's a good family place but I would say younger kids would probably enjoy it more.
