I had planned to spend about 90 minutes there with an active almost 4 year old boy. We spent at least one hour on the first floor alone before we went to the 2nd floor. Never made it to the 3rd floor at all where they have water features because the museum closed. Next time I'll start on the top floor and work my way down. Allow 2-3 hours depending on the age of the children.

Hello! I would say this depends on your kids' interests. If your kids are interested in dinosaurs, they will be thrilled. There is a mock fossil excavation activity for young kids and a lot of hands on activities. Most of the museum is filled with dinosaur skeletons and there are small touch screens where you can learn about where they came from by zooming in on a map or clicking on different facts. I would recommend this for children.
