"Ok, but pricey"
We were excited to go see the dinosaur site at Johnson Farm, but were disappointed to find out that there were not life-size dinosaurs at the museum. It was interesting to see the footprints and different kinds of dinosaurs that were in the area. But for $6.00 per person, I wasn't impressed. We spent about 30 minutes there and although my son still talks about seeing the footprints, I wish it would have been more kid-friendly and interactive. But still worth seeing if you have a dinosaur fanatic in the family! My 3 year-old was happy that they had actual footprints that he could touch!

"Neat Place for Older Kids"
This place was fascinating for sure- my husband and I really enjoyed it. However they have all these cool fossils and displays that you literally walk through, with only a rope keeping you out. It was so hard trying to keep our 3 year old OFF the fossils! After an hour, I was so DONE with trying to keep him in, which was frustrating! I don't think we'd go again. If you have older kids though who are interested in dinosaurs, they'd love it!

"Really Cool"
A local was leveling a hill on his property in 2000 when he discovered preserved dinosaur tracks in sandstone. Many more were found after excavation and is open to the public to view and watch paleontologists examine the fossils. There's many other dinosaur fossils not found at the site, including some T-Rex stuff. There's also a short video and one area available for touching. My 2 year old liked the video and the hands-on part, but not touching everything else was a little difficult for him, but older kids and anyone into dinosaurs should definitely visit!
