What parents say
It's a small museum, but it's jam-packed with exhibits. There's an excavation sand pit for the little ones and a cool water table area. There's tons of information and a very affordable and entertaining way to spend an afternoon for anyone who likes dinosaurs. There were clean restrooms and a great little gift shop.
We took a group of kids and adults to the museum on a Sunday 40 minutes before closing. The staff was very friendly to us, the children had fun and the adults were entertained. Will definitely go again.
This place is awesome for adults who need a refresher on Dinos and want to learn more about the rich history in this area. This is a great place to kill< 1 hour. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. If you go during the day, you can see paleontologists do their work!
This place was very cute. It was small but overall the kids enjoyed it. Very clean museum. The girls at the front desk were lovely. The gift shop was pretty cool. We found a few things to get. Great variety in merchandise and prices.
