This place is seriously SO COOL! We visited for the first time and had an absolute blast. There is…read moreso much to explore, and it's incredibly well set up for little kids. Our guy is 20 months old and had the best time running around and discovering everything. He especially loved the little make-believe town and playing with all the different interactive elements but the water tables were the clear favorite! He could've stayed there forever. Such a fun, engaging experience for kids and parents alike. We can't wait to go back and explore even more next time! PS they supply aprons and water boots in the water table room! Super convenient. I suggest bringing a change of clothes or some PJS to change your little one into in case they get soaked!

My kids are 2 and 5 and they had a blast. My partner and I typically love kids museums, but we didn't enjoy this one. We went on a Monday around 3 and it was packed. As an educator I really appreciated how exhibits were super low floor and high ceiling so kids of a large age range could all enjoy, but as a mom of littles it was dangerous and overwhelming. There were so many kids sprinting around unsupervised which was a safety issue for my little ones. They got pushed around a lot, many kids were hoarding all the balls or pieces for certain exhibits. The amount of running was pretty dangerous especially for my almost 2 year old. I liked that they had indoor and outdoor exhibits. They had a car repair shop, water play, air driven scarf and ball mazes, fish feeding (for a cost), a play ground, a climbing gym, a ropes course, a cafe, a gift shop, mazes and brain games, and many other exhibits. They had a variety of locations to park strollers. There were steps and elevators. The bags they put the fish food in were way too flimsy. Both broke on my kids and we were scrambling trying to hold the food and pick it up off the ground. It was nice that they have free parking and don't make you exit through the gift shop.

However, other times our kids are pretty deflated because there are hardly any, and those that are there all look the same or are well out of reach. It's still fun to check out, but only if you have the pass to all the attractions. I wouldn't pay to just visit this one

Pretty cool experience for kids. It's really neat seeing the butterflies whiz all around you and…read moreeven land on you. Will definitely be back! *Side note parents please don't allow your children to hurt these beautiful beings! We saw children screaming, chasing and harassing the butterflies that were within reach. So unnecessary!

If you have even a passing interest in the history of this area it will be well worth your time to…read morevisit this museum. I was given a tour by Paul who has an amazing amount of local knowledge stored in his memory, and he's happy to share it. The museum is located in a wheelchair-accessible house and every room covers a different aspect of life in days gone by. They also offer research options for those who might have ancestors from that area as I do. If you live in the Salt Lake area and haven't visited here, gather up your kids and stop by. (Psst, there's also a huge play structure at the City park within a stone's throw of the museum.) The wonderful people who staff the museum are ready and willing to show you whatever bits of history you're most interested in! And if you go, please give my regards to my 4x great grandmother, Phoebe Draper, whose picture hangs on the wall.

There's no doubt that this is a really cool and large dinosaur museum…read more It's littered with activities for the kids and quite a bit to look at. Unfortunately, id probably say it's currently one of my least favorite activities at thanksgiving point. Probably due to the age of my kids. They are 2 and 4 , and don't quite enjoy themselves as much here like they do at the Jurassic jungle or the museum of natural curiosity. Even if you have younger kids though, it's still a decent place to spend part of your day, especially if you have the annual pass and want to change things up.

Such a fun day at the dinosaur museum! We visited the…read moreJurassic side (which was an additional cost) and it was totally worth it! The play area is huge, tons of space for the kids to run, jump, and just be wild. It was clean, well-maintained, and super engaging for little ones. On the museum side, there was so much to see and explore. My kids were fascinated by all the displays and interactive elements. They especially loved the sandpit with water and the dino dig zone! such a great mix of learning and play! Highly recommend for families looking for a fun, educational, and active day out. We'll definitely be back!
