What parents say
Don't let the negative reviews deter you!! We stumbled across this place while trying to find something to do with our almost 3 year old . It looks like there is not a lot of parking but they are on a corner and have parking all around the building. There are 5 rooms and an outdoor area.
A cool museum that we discovered by accident. They have tours that include animals, making fossil replicas, and a talk on fossil formation. Nice outdoor play area including a small zip line ($3 extra). Separate Creation Education Center. Would be great for smaller kids, but my 13 and 17 yo kids enjoyed it.
This place is perfect to get out of the house for a few hours. Very hands on, lots of things to learn and do (nothing biblical like others have said), the staff is incredible & very friendly & kind to the kids. I will say there are bits & pieces of biblical things but not like others are explaining it in other reviews.
My third grade class loved this field trip. The staff members are knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. We had perfect weather and the students enjoyed the outdoor area as well. They only book one group in a time slot so we had the place to ourselves and their full attention. I would definitely come again.
