As one negative review mentioned, it is set up for kids under age 8 or so, maybe even younger than that. But without a lot of older kids dominating the landscape, the younger kids are free to play. I think it's a positive thing, that it's so centered on the younger kids! I especially appreciate that it is as quiet as possible--no blaring noise from loudspeakers going on, just the noise of children happily playing. I also appreciate that it's not commercialized with lots of Disney characters or other kids' celebrities. Their castle is whatever the child wants it to be--not just a Disney castle. Overall a great place for little ones when it's too hot, windy or cold to go to a park.

There are parts of the museum with natural history back to the dinosaur ages and the geology. There are several different sections on people history from the Native Americans through the founding of Idaho up to a few decades ago. There's a section with a darkened street on the first level with about 9 businesses from over a century ago making you immersed back in time. Yes, there are a handful of interactive areas for kids ranging from "shoot the mammoth" to a separate play area in a section that looks as if you'd lived 100 years ago.

So many interactive ways to reach you about flight, aerodynamics and machines that can fly. Prices are affordable and plenty to do and see for the money. The section devoted specifically to Idaho is very interesting and worth at least another hour or more. Lots of places for the kids to engage and have fun.

So, like the previous poster stated, this is essentially a poor man's Kids Town. However, that's…read morenot necessarily a bad thing. It's much smaller than Kids Town, but for my little two year old that was good thing. I was able to hang out in a corner and was able to keep an eye on her the entire time. The price ($4 per kid, no charge for adults) is much more reasonable than Kids Town as well. My kiddo got bored a bit sooner than she would have at Kids Town, but again, not necessarily a bad thing. We spent about 2hrs there and I was certainly ready to go by the time she was. There are a few improvements I would suggest to make this a slightly better experience: 1) There simply MUST be some kind of change with the flooring transition between the "building" room, which is elevated about 3 inches, and the main floor. The flooring is the same color and it's very hard for little kiddos to recognize the drop off. A simple and effective fix would be to put yellow duct tape along the ledge. 2) it needs more (and more comfortable) grown up seating. A great idea would be to add padded benches so kiddos didn't bump their heads on corners 3) It would be really nice to have some kind of climbing/sliding section. A higher end Step2 or Little Tikes climber/slide would do the trick. Just something to help get the wiggles out. At the end of the day though, it's a great addition to Rexburg and we will definitely be going back soon and often.

He passed away last year, truly leaving a void in this world. The $10 entrance fee is worth it, because at this time, they offer you a choice of one of his excellent books! It is WELL worth the price of admission! The books are on the counter, left of the admission counter, so be sure to ask for yours! On the third floor is a display of the SPACE AGE era in America (striving with Russia). It covered the subsequent 'rocket' designs of vacuum cleaners. I couldn't help it, I laughed out loud while reading it! :D What I found interesting ; -Elizabeth of Bavaria's traveling commode (and HOW it worked) -WWII field latrine -The daunting DUST Victorians faced, and the first vacuum invented (horse drawn) -the goofy statues made out of cleaning & vacuum cleaner parts -all the vintage advertising & appliances -the video on how to clean a bathroom in three minutes! In their gift shop, they have an interesting mix of toys, cleaning tools, and other goodies. I ended up buying handy-dandy toilet brushes for my friends! Won't they be SO pleased?! SWEET!

Drove almost 4 hours to get there and then another 3+ hours to Boise to visit friends and flew home from there. Was it worth it? Well, we actually had a really great time! There was enough to keep us interested for a couple hours. Typical museum displays were supported by videos, some talking potatoes, even a cute Virtual Reality Tractor and some video games. After we went through the exhibits, we ended at the cafe and got a baked potato and some fries. You can have anything you want on them, so we got chili and cheese, sour cream, and bacon. The only sad part was that they were out of gnocchi. Lots of parking and there are some shops in the area. So, yes, we're really glad we went and recommend it if you're in the area.

Well, not this time! All jokes aside, this was a fun little wayside distraction, tucked away "in the back" of Blackfoot, but worth it for the kitsch and novelty of the whole thing. Our kids certainly loved it, particularly the potato family projection in the "basement" that narrates the harvesting and storing of potatoes; our three year old couldn't stop staring and laughing! In additions to displays, videos and dioramas detailing every potato fact you might ever want to know (and more), there's also a quaint little café at the back purveying all manner of potato products, from fries and other fried things, to the good ol' Irish Sundae (a baked 'tater dressed just how you like it), so you can get your carb load for the day in whatever form you desire! Admission is cheap (a few bucks per person), and a great way to kill some time, or break up the monotony of a road trip.

This particular exhibit, featuring "Contemporary textile artists Lynne Rigby, Rosemary Ravsten and the group Artists with a Common Thread," was very interesting. The artwork is all made from fabric. I especially like Rosemary Ravsten--a pst resident of Idaho Falls who now lives in Seattle. Her piece entitled "Angel," made from frayed silk, was beautiful. The Eagle Rock Art Museum is a nice little building with three large exhibit halls featuring high ceilings and exceptional lighting. It's no MoMA, but it's a great cultural center in Idaho Falls, and if you're a supporter of the arts, it's the perfect place to frequent.
