See the Frankenstein Exhibit and play Mindball. Garden is lovely and surrounds the building. Best day for families is on Saturday...avoid mornings during field trip season. Read more

Love this place! #BakkenMuseum

Not the best museum around and not exactly kid-friendly. Too many "do not touch" artifacts . Stick with Smithsonian museums in DC
