  My Wife and two kids (under 4 yrs old) visited here a few weeks ago. It was an amazing time. My kids LOVED IT. At the entrance they have a huge display of a whale that my kids were in awe over. They loved seeing all the different kind of animals and displays from around California. They have a really cool kid area where they can play in a stream. Bring a change of dry clothes!

  Nestled near the Mission hillside, this museum has a lot to offer. Great for kids, botanists, bio scientists, ornithologists and anthropology fans. Some of the exhibits are showing their age a little bit which makes the price a little steep. Staff is helpful and parking is free.
