Five stars if you are 8 and younger, three stars if you are older--so four stars average. Simply, this museum was built for kids and caters to kids. There is little in way of adult-oriented exhibits or content, and labeling is sadly lacking. That being said, this is a great place for families with small children. There is much for children to enjoy and leave a little more excited about our many natural environments and those critters who share (or once lived long ago) our planet. Given the amount of money that flows through Vegas on a daily basis, it is somewhat sad or frustrating that more funding isn't available to update and improve these exhibits. Children deserve a place like this (a better place actually), to get excited about science, to widen their curiosities that may become life-long passions. But it's a start, well deserving of a couple hours of time.

This place is just amazing for adults and kids. We took our 5 year old here and she pretty much screamed out of sheer joy the entire time lol... look dad...look at this mum...and so on. Parents will learn to. So much stuff about Egypt alone that we didn't know. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the guides were full of fun facts to. Worth the money for sure just from hearing the happy yelling from the kids.

Great place for kids. My 3 year old girls loved it. I got the 1 year membership for a family was 65$ & got a free dinosaur toy & they had free ice cream for when you leave.

Quite an enjoyable little museum and one of the few places in Las Vegas that is tailored to a child. Many exhibits and interactive stations. We really enjoyed the ancient Egyptian area and the dinosaurs. All in all a solid place to take the family and beat the heat.
