Excellent exhibits, friendly and helpful staff, and a well stocked activity area. It's not a large facility, but it's very focused on a few key topics so there's still plenty to learn while being able to see everything in under an hour. Excellent for a short visit for younger families. As a bonus, there's an indoor play area in the shared building so kids can burn off any extra energy before or after towing the museum.The only real downside for us was that there was a distinct wet basement odor when we visited, I don't know if that's a regular problem or if we just had bad luck on the timing of our visit.
Amazing little place full of fossils, models, art and more. Highly recommended for kids of all ages and adults too. It was very cool knowing all the fossils were local finds. The kids loved the fossil dig sand pit area the best. My mom and I enjoyed the fossils of the mosasaurs the most. The gift shop has a neat little collection of stuffed animals, dino souvenirs, rocks, magnets, clothes and hats. Staff were friendly and attentive. Worth the trip to the beautiful town of Morden!
The place is a fun and affordable destination. The $18 family is a good option. 30 minutes is ample time. The mosasaurs are the jaw droppers of this place. But for us, the kids room at the end was great too. The sand box where they can do a dig was genial, kids were lost in play for a long time. The gift shop is loaded with some neat stuff also.
I brought my 2 grandsons ( 8 and 11) here for a visit. The front end staff were friendly courteous and helpful. They explained what we were about to experience, where to go and gave us a history of the exhibit and its contents. The exhibit itself is very well laid out has an easy to follow/read program and is enjoyable. We all learned new and exciting facts about the area and its history. My grandsons enjoyed the entire exhibition The 8 year old had to do it twice to ensure he didn't miss anything. I will be a returning customer!
Visited the museum for the first time this week for the unveiling of the newest Mosasaur! I was very impressed with the collection of fossils they have and the the displays were awesome. The volunteers were so friendly and knowledgeable.I learned so much in such a short time about some of the fossil discoveries in Manitoba! Me and the kids absolutely loved our visit. Very family friendly. I will go again :)!
