Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum, Provo

This museum is a bit small for the high ratings, but really neat. There is still quite the variety of animals represented. Some exhibits are interactive, too. It’s free, so just park north of the entrance and then you’ll need to give your license plate number to the front desk receptionists. Great for families.

Make sure when you arrive to get your license plate number for your parking voucher as I didn't see any signs saying that until you get to the entrance. It is free and they do take cash donations. The place is a good size museum. Lots to see. It is part of the BYU so there are religious pictures there. They have a small little play area for the kids to get their energy out. Really nice museum. Loved everything. My kids loved it. Very educational.
