I used to volunteer in the paleo lab and the fact that they had a paleo lab is indicative of the hands on approach that this museum takes. They have a great permanent exhibit in dinos, all kinds of animals and plants. But do not miss the special exhibits from time to time. I know they charge admission for those, but they are always worth the price. I was there for the Deep Sea and Space Exploration exhibits.
Also, do not be shy about volunteering for the museum.

Bickett Gallery aims to bring New York to Raleigh's Five Points neighborhood, and they accomplish this task flawlessly. The decor is stylish modern and stylish, and the exhibits are displayed tastefully against cool white walls. In the boutique, section, they feature artwork, jewelry, and accessories from local and nationally recognized creators. They also have a bar (wine, beer, and liquor) that's probably one of the coolest and most relaxing places to drink in Raleigh-with free wireless Internet, to boot. When you add in musical performances and the deck are in back (great for having a drink, watching a band, or both), you can see why Bickett Gallery is exactly what Glenwood Raleigh's growing art scene needs. One note: follow their advice, and don't Mapquest/Google the directions; use the ones posted on the website.

I bring my 2 year old once in awhile as a special treat. He LOVES it. Good interaction with other kids- gets to play with things we don't have on hand at home.
For $5 a person I think it's a great deal. If you go more than a few times a year I would just go ahead and get the year long pass ($80-I think)

I have been spoiled by living in DC and NYC...places with amazing museums and exhibits. I didn't expect to be impressed by a comparatively small one in North Carolina, but impressed I am. There is so much here to see and explore. Some areas are specifically geared to kids - a living laboratory, and place to "touch and feel" science.
A wonderful part of the museum is specifically about the NC area and the animals and plants that can only be found here. Most of the museum is free, but there are special entry exhibits that you will need to pay for. Make sure to check out the totally cool dinosaur display...you will feel like you're on the set of Jurassic Park where at any moment the dinosaurs will come to life! This place is a must see if a trip to Raleigh is in your future.
