Museum of Life and Science

Amazing place and worth the hype for Raleigh Durham area. We went for a kids birthday party. They have a mini zoo with live farm animals! As well as inside they have birds and reptiles, and in a separate area, a butterfly habitat - we saw a little girl covered in them (3-4 of them). Amazing. And really cool scientific interactive exhibits inside, as well as various playgrounds including a ropes based treehouse outside. Awesome experience.

Huge museum, a big variety of activities to do and experiences to have. Everything was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. We got to experience the butterfly room in early spring when they were all out flitting everywhere, and it was positively magical.

A must see place with kids. Wholesome entertainment, cool and comforting weather, nice trails with variety of play area/structures and clean indoor exhibits. Overall superb fun outing for the family.
