The AMNH is one of the most organized and has some of the most friendliest staff workers in all of the museums in NY. In addition to their excellent exhibits, the food is pretty great as well! If you're a fan of the Night at the Museum movies, you definetly need to check it out! The museum isn't as decpicted in the movie because its 10 times larger, but you will get to see many of the ""characters"" from the series, beware there are often lines to have your picture with them-no charge though. This is my favorite musuem in NY and much more organized than the Met by far!
Pros: realistic exhibits, educational, name your own price tickets
Cons: Usually lots of school field trips
