If there was ever the need for an infinity stars button it would be for this spectacular museum. Worth every penny and then some. This museum is fantastic. They also offer some fun adult events, in addition to very thorough and thoughtful educational classes for homeschool students - I'm not positive if they offe conventional classroom field trips but, I would venture to say they do. They are passionate and informed to the marrow (see what I tried to do there, lol) about skeletons the collections on display are beyond impressive. because I didn't inquire however I would imagine a conventional school field trip here would be nothing short of an absolute must have in a teachers curriculum if anything relating to forensics, archeology, evolution, zoology, geography.. I mean I've been to the Smithsonian's several times and it's as if a small group of the smithsonian curaters was tired of big DC bustle and came to Oklahoma and put this tiny but mighty masterpiece together. The educational staff, both times my child and fellow homeschooler friend attended, were absolutely educator of the year material. The order, precision and effectiveness of the classes was seamless and just a huge success as far as I'm concerned. I would highly recommend anyone and especially educators to check into this absolute Gem. Anyone looking to support a worthy cause look no further, I implore you to check it out. The contribution to the community this resource provides makes me ashamed I had not looked and visited sooner. Why are you still reading and not buying tickets now ! Oh I forgot they have scavenger hunts you can do to help you see the amazing details you might otherwise miss during your awe inspiring visit. Thank you Skeleton Museum we...

LAME & BORING! ...is what I was thinking when my wife wanted to take a trip with my son and I to the MOO as I affectionately call it.

I was blown away. It’s a definite small footprint. However, what it likes in square footage it more than makes up for in content. The museum is expertly curated and attentively run by a small group of engaged staff.

The arrangement of the exhibits is thoughtful, artistic, and visually appealing. The content provided within each display is just plain interesting. I found myself actually, like, reading the content. It is SUPER INTERESTING. I honestly didn’t want to leave.

If you have kids this museum does a focused job of engaging their young minds. We took our 5 year old and he was excited throughout. They offer age appropriate, self guided, scavenger hunts. We had a blast finding all the different animals.

They also sell owl pellets for a very small fee and provide space, on the museum floor, to dissect. The museum has a gift shop with a wide variety of options. Many options sub $10 so your kiddo can take home a little something. We just took home the bones he found in his owl pellet in the provided bag.

I can’t believe I’m saying this. I’ll be back to the...
