I liked how interactive it was and how it presented its message clearly. The grounds were beautiful too, and everything felt clean and organized.

Also note that the security guards are ARMED TO THE TEETH, which did not make me feel safe. And the fact that they are not taxed, being a religious institution, in no way means a savings for you and your family. I did enjoy seeing the fantastical scenarios that their timeline, which puts dinosaurs on the earth at the same time as people, commits them to. An imaginative exercise and I'm glad a place like this exists, but they really have no business keeping animals.

Went here with my kids over spring break and it was a great way to spend the day. We got there…read morearound 10am and parking was super easy. There's a lot of it, including handicap spots right up front. The museum is huge, way bigger than I expected, with two floors and different sections that go in order through history, which was really cool. It's also completely free to get in and park, which is a big plus. The kids loved the interactive exhibits, and the staff was really helpful and knew their stuff if you had questions. We grabbed food at the cafeteria and it wasn't bad at all. Definitely recommend, especially if you have kids and need something fun to do.

Stumbled on this when in town to visit the county historical museum. Google or Apple or someone…read moreknows I am a history buff, and this popped up. Fit it in when I could. Pull up to the building on the hill. Nice parking area. But it turns out that is the smaller, annex building, really. Head down to the row of shops across the street, and you will enter a world full of Model Ts. Beautifully restored and displayed, with good explanations of their backgrounds, and often a copy of the group's magazine in front with an article about that particular car. Superb staff, friendly and knowledgeable. Tons to see. When you finish here, there are more cars (and a plane) across the street. They have events, and it's really worth a visit if you are anywhere nearby, are at all a car buff or history buff. Or just curious. A few cars for kids to sit in, etc., and they'll have fun too.

Fascinating to see actual 100-plus year old vehicles arranged in such a way that you learn about their development. Interesting how they were really toys for the very wealthy until about the early 20s when the assembly line started to bring the prices down. It's housed in two buildings, the second one really had much more to see than the first. The docent/tour guide was full of knowledge and enthusiasm and would probably talk for hours if you were willing to listen. A couple visitors who were there were major car buffs, looking closely under hoods and discussing valves and pistons at great length. The guide did a good job balancing between them and those of us who were really more interested in the historic aspect and a somewhat shorter tour. Along with the cars, tractors, trucks, you can see antique office equipment, tools, car accessories, vintage advertising and mannequins dressed in period costumes. Most of the vehicles have been restored with fresh Ford paint jobs, but a few are on display in all their ancient, rusty glory. Be prepared to spend the entire visit on your feet. As with most antiques, the general rule is 'look but don't touch' but they are not obsessed with this and didn't seem to mind some careful, respectful touching of the restored vehicles. Perfect activity for a Sunday afternoon.

The Hefner Museum of Natural History is a hidden gem in Oxford, Ohio, and Miami University's…read moresprawling campus. The museum itself is not large, but it does feature multiple rooms, including a children's "Imaginarium" with a focus on tactile and interactive experiences for youths. The museum maintains several exhibits in the hallways through Upham hall depicting various natural creatures, such as some type of deer being watched by a cougar, and a large fish. Inside the museum itself, you can see all kinds of natural artifacts: bones, including a real human skull; various preserved animals including a bear, penguin, moose, and a number of sea creatures; samples of wood; insects; and more. But the collection itself is only half of the magic of this place. The real magic comes from Steve, the caretaker, who is both extremely knowledgeable about the collection, and a great teacher and explainer for people of all ages and levels. He's intimately familiar with the objects in the care of the university, and is eager to share what he can with his visitors. If you're interested in learning, spending 20 minutes here with Steve should be part of any trip through Miami.

Definitely a place to take kids to since they love this kind of stuff - the story of this castle is quite unique.

Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park was one of the most unique experiences of our weekend in Hamilton! The…read morecombination of art and nature makes this place truly special. The park is expansive, peaceful, and beautifully maintained, with impressive sculptures tucked throughout the rolling hills and wooded landscape. We loved exploring the park and discovering something new around every turn. One of our best decisions was renting an Art Cart, which made it easy--and a lot of fun--to cover more of the property while still stopping along the way to enjoy the sculptures, scenery, and views. Whether you're an art lover, nature enthusiast, photographer, or simply looking for something different to do, Pyramid Hill is absolutely worth a visit. Give yourself plenty of time to explore, rent an Art Cart if available, and enjoy one of the most memorable attractions in the Hamilton area. We would definitely return!

It's art plus history, and some of the exhibits include tactile, audible AND olfactory enhancements. The classical old building housing the museum is a work of art in itself. That sweeping staircase! Not to worry, there are elevators. And the entire premises is fully wheelchair accessible including plenty of designated parking spots. There is a gift shop and a cafe on premises. My only regret from our visit is we only allowed 90 minutes. I would say at least two hours plus to see everything without rushing. They also offer guided tours, not sure of the duration on those. And..... FREE admission, free parking. And a great view from Mount Adams as an added bonus. What a gem!
