James KongMarch 14, 2012Always something to see at the museum. Hmm tempted to camp overnight one of these days. Looking at Dinosaurs never get old.
Don't miss the anchutz sky terrace for the best view of Denver!
If you I going to see the Bidy World's exhibit, I recommend early Subday am. We went at 10:15, and there was no crowd.
Ask for museum seek and find to mix it up a little.
Last few weeks of Pirates! Museum is offering extended hours for this exhibit...don't miss it!

"The best place to go if you have kids under 2nd grade. The shows are fabulous, the activities at the are fun, the volunteers are super kind. If your kid wants to play in the water they need a smock."

"A great area for all ages. This is one of the most popular and time consuming exhibits as everyone tries to complete their peak pass. I recommend going first thing in the morning."
