Only reason I discovered that this Museum was perfect for my 4 old son was because his class took to a field trip. We are members at the Lied Museum, which was right across the street but it never occurred to me to try this place out too. I am so happy we did!
My son LOVES it, the dinosaur room, the Africa room, and I love that the Egyptian exhibit freaks him out and he has to hold my hand. haha We became members the day after his field trip because I knew it would take multiple visits to see it all and learn from it. The membership has already paid for itself.My 9 yr old daughter had an amazing time too, and really enjoyed herself.
Each time we go I learn something new, and love that my kids are not only gaining knowledge but are having a fun time. The people that work there are very nice, and walk by offering facts along the way.
The gift shop isnt your run of the mill, everything is way over priced type of shop either. Prices are really really low and they have some great, authentic items.
As a mom The Las Vegas Natural History Museum definitely gets my vote!
