Burpee Museum of Natural History

This is a nice little museum. It's better than many small museums I've visited. The staff is active and engaging. They were a joy to talk to and knew what they were talking about. We will definitely be returning here again. We called ahead as we were visiting on 12/23 (the eve of Christmas Eve) and they were open, and not very crowded. We were able to take our time and enjoy the exhibits.

A lovely museum. I was struck especially by the triceratops skulls/fossils they have--I have never seen such a collection in numerous natural history museums I have toured. Worth a visit if ever in the Rockford area.

Very interesting Museum. Also I was approached by one of the employees and he took his time to explain me some things about Dinosaurs. This Museum is a Must Go To when you are in Rockford Area.
