There's something here for everybody--the young and the young at heart. I love the Butterfly Pavilion. They prove that learning can be fun with indoor and outdoor hands-on activities. Beware, you might run into a dinosaur or two walking to the Wild Animal exhibits. I love how they have remote TV cameras at the animal exhibits, so you can zoom... More

I recently took my 2nd grade class here on a field trip. We were broken down into groups of 6. We spent the morning outside in the butterfly garden, wildlife exhibit (bears, lemurs, wolves), and the dinosaur exhibit. After eating lunch, we visited the inside of the museum. This included a hands-on lesson "sink or float." Each week the museum... More

This is a really great museum built out of an old rock quarry. There are several areas to visit, but some are really more fun if you have kids. There is a play place to burn off energy (aka, a playground), a butterfly conservatory (really cool for all ages), a few animals in very natural looking areas, and the neatest... More

I recently visited this museum after many years. It remains one of my favorites. The property itself is large and incorporates both outside exhibits and inside exhibits. Prepare for some walking and possible weather issues when visiting the outside portions which are a must. A few things that stick out in my mind are the inside insect and butterfly exhibits.... More

I have been several times and my niece absolutely loves the place. The inside exhibits are nice as are the outside ones.

I would definitely devote several hours or multiple trips in order... More

I cane here with my family not knowing what to expect. It was so neat. A cross between a hands on learning museum and a zoo. The kids (9 and 7) had a great time. You can spend as much or as little time on each "experiment". We stayed for several hours.

Have been going to this museum for years now since my kids were toddlers and they always keep the museum fresh with new ideas so it doesn’t get old. Some exhibits like the building room, train, animals and space travel information are static but well presented. Other exhibits change so you never get bored. The model train exhibit at Christmas...

The Museaum of Life and Science is absolutely wonderful. They have exhibits on absolutely everything that children are learning in science. No matter what the lesson, they seem to have an exhibit which brings the lesson to life and makes it so easy to understand.
