 | | Mary Beth, Co-op Member | We cannot begin to describe our trips to this landmark museum. We go as a family and even though we live about 200 miles away we always buy a membership and come back at least twice a year because there is SO much for us all to see and experience.
The planetarium is wonderful. The exhibits on the planets and stars really give you a sense of distance and magnitude not seen in any other science museum. There are plenty of shows in this area of the museum and lots of little free movie areas.
The dinosaur exhibit could take a lifetime to visit as could all of the other sections of the museum. Some of them are quite old and still amaze us. The educational value is enormous as the explanations are great.
We would highly recommend that people go out of their way to visit this great museum. |

| | BDF, Co-op Member | | The American Museum of Natural History lives up to its name in every way. It's much too big to be seen in one day, so pick just a few exhibits that you really want to see, then spend some time there. But make sure you don't miss the dinosaurs! |

| | BDF, Co-op Member | The American Museum of Natural History definitely lives up to its name--it's got to be the single best natural history museum in the US.
The museum is so big that you'll never see it all in one day, so pick the exhibits you really want to see and spend some time at each one. But definitely don't skip the dinosaurs! |

| | Yesenia Reyes, Co-op Member | | This Museum is Great! They have so many different sections. You can take your child every day for a week and never see the same thing. The exhibits are coherent and well explained. There is always a guide there to help you. And an exhibit for all ages! |

| | Daniel Inverso, Co-op Member | When I was a child, one of our class trips was to the Museum of Natural History. This happened about 42 years ago. Last week I decided to take my two children, ages 5 and 6
to this Museum. We were amazed and overwhelmed with the wealth of what one could see and learn. Of course we became members and plan to visit monthly to take advantage and maximize our learning experience. |
