Mini Fossil Tour

In the mini tour, children will learn about dinosaurs and see and touch real fossils and fossil casts. All tours are led by our trained and very entertaining museum guides. Our Science Center is devoted to teaching the Creation Science and Intelligent Design models in contrast to Evolution models of life and history.

We cannot supply food for birthday parties, however, you are welcome to bring your own or have food delivered (such as the custom designed cake, pictured above). Limited refrigeration and a freezer space is available upon request.

Extra Activities Continue

Optional activities continue in the birthday party room with upgraded packages.

Guests Play in Truassic Park

There are activities for guests of all ages in our dinosaur themed adventure park. We have a dinosaur kiddie-land for the youngest guests, a giant slide, 4-person swing, dinosaur hunting station, a 200 ft zip-line and more! Truassic Park is open subject to the weather and therefore we cannot guarantee that the park will be open on the day of your party.
