The Main Visitor Center offers fun hands-on activities for kids, including free fossil replica digging play areas, making it a fantastic learning adventure. Additionally, guided bus tours and self-guided audio tours provide engaging ways for families to discover dinosaur history together without tiring little legs. The outdoor museum setting, interactive exhibits, and nearby snack options create a welcoming place for families to spend about 1-2 hours exploring in good weather[1][2][3][6].
