We recently had a birthday party for my daughter at the museum. The price was fair and you got a discount with a membership. We were allowed to use the party room for longer than our time slot because there were no other parties scheduled. This worked out very well for the older members of our party that needed a spot to rest from walking around the museum. The staff was wonderful, knowledgeable, and helpful. There are plenty of interactive activities for children. The planetarium show was excellent. We love bringing our family to this museum.

We had a great time at the museum today. My daughter loves animals and this place is full of them. I appreciated the size of the museum; it was a manageable excursion that you can see what they have to offer in an afternoon. Thanks for your commitment to veterans as a Blue Star museum. This wasn't a huge issue with a three year old with us, but if I have one piece of advice it's to provide more information about the animals whether that's in the form of tour guides or guides stations in certain sections, printed materials, or even links / QR that I could see a video or go to a web page about the animal. There's a small sign with their habitat, lifespan, etc. but we happened into a staff person feeding a legless lizard and learned a lot in that few minutes chatting. It would add to the experience to have that kind of background accessible for all of the animals when someone is so inclined.

This was a very cute little museum. I took my 3.5 yr old and she had so much fun. It was inexpensive and we were able to do the entire building in under 2 hours. Nice for a quick, fun and educational day trip.

It was a nice day trip. 3 floors of stuff to see but over all was a small exhibit. The sci some is extra and each additional movie is $4.00. although the movies is informative to some (I knew this stuff already) the movie was short and dark. I kept want to adjust the brightness level like you do on your TV when the picture is dark. The gentleman who hosted the movie was great. Oh and due to letting light in once your in the movie and you leave it to say....go to the bathroom... you're not allowed back in. So do that stuff before you go it.

It's a small museum that's very hands on for kids. It has a great local animals discovery room and a kid can spend many a happy hour there exploring.
