- John (aka “PHATFoodFan”)June 25, 2016Check out the Beyond Earth Spaceship exhibit (starts 6/25/16 and watch the 12 minute movie there...try to get the middle seat in the middle row for best view and feel the vibration).

- Karen ProctorDecember 27, 2012Awsome museum. If you plan to visit more than once get a membership though. Great around the holdiays. The theatre and planetarium are really great. Food court so-so but good for a break.
- Jetset ExtraSeptember 18, 2013This place is legit when it comes to learning about the Cretaceous period. There are fossils, a lab manned by paleontologists, and a dig zone that lets kids practice looking for dinosaur bones. Read more

- BonNovember 27, 2016You can get into the store without going in the whole museum. Store opens up to the xmas wonderland slide, live carols, and giant snow globe
- Kevin LiuJanuary 6, 2016The Take Me There: China exhibit was good and the dinosaurs (including the mummy) are incredible! We spent hours there and could have stayed even longer.
- Joe KinneyJuly 13, 2011Great value. 2 adults and our 4 kids for a year for only $160.00, that would be the price of coming less than 2 times. Plus you can ride the carousel for free every time and get a museum store discoun
- Look for QR codes to scan around the museum that point to fascinating articles or entertaining videos!

- SuzyMay 12, 2015Must go to when visiting the city if you have kids. Tickets are pricey though. They should use the city's tax dollars towards lowering ticket prices.
- If you're coming more than once a year, the annual membership is a good deal. If you have young children, it will probably take you more than a day to see everything.
