The Idaho Museum of Natural History is a solid piece of my childhood, all the times I visited, attended classes, even stayed overnight. I was very happy to take my nephew recently, and even more thrilled that he had so much fun looking at the exhibits, playing with the interactive stations, and running around the grassy area outside. It's unfortunate the parking situation is as it is now, that made it a bit tough and I'm sure deters some would-be visitors, but we made it anyway! Definitely would also appreciate more child-focused programming and classes!

Smaller museum that's part of the ISU campus. Features a good amount of information about the prehistoric area and lots of fossils. There are some impressive lifesize skeletons of animals and some heads of fish and sharks. The museum is priced just right for the size so we did not feel like we were being overcharged. Good place to spend some time in Pocatello.
