★★★★★Love this place. We come through the area about once a winter and our daughter has been here multiple times (now 4yos). We're at the stage where she can explore and investigate more on her own but it's been a great place for all four years of visiting. Worth the price, so much to do, and even if they appear busy with school programs you don't notice it.

★★★★★What everyone else says - such a great museum! Everyone in our family (6, 10, 36, and 38) greatly enjoyed our time here! Definitely should be on the agenda for any family visiting the area.

★★★★★This place is amazing. Every display except the live animals is interactive. They have classes for children and even have a play area outside for them. But it's not just a great place for kids, adults will also find the displays fun to use and enjoy learning like the kids.
