We go about once a month. The staff is great and helpful. My daughter always wants to hold a snake and they let her pick which one. They also let her hold for a long time. My other daughter loves getting to touch dinosaurs bones and figure out what species they are. They have a few she can touch and she loves it. They also have a elevator ride to take about different time periods in New Mexico. My three girls all enjoy it. They love look at the different planets, the earthquake system, and seeing the rocks.

We love taking our daughter to the museum. Nice layout that's easy to navigate and learn. The planetarium is pretty old and need an update and new seats. They showcase different themes in part of the museum once in a while. Located within walking distance from Historic Old Town, and right across from Explora.

The staff there are amazing! They always want to answer your questions and help. They know about all the facts of an object and make it fun to learn. I'm definitely visiting the museum again.

Every person was very helpful. The exhibits are well taken care of. The layout is a bit confusing at first as you're supposed to start upstairs. But the give you a map and will explain if you need them to. And each area is numbered with a banner marking where the next area starts.

I love this natural history museum. The people are always pleasant and willing to help and they keep the museum current. We recently went to the Di Vinci exhibit and loved it. I have been going to this museum for over 30 years and i still enjoy it.
