Bean Life Science Museum - Museum in Provo - 645 E Phillips Ln, USA

It is being remodeled with new and updated exhibits not much here now should very cool when done. Four and half stars when all exhibits are open just not worth a visit now.

Love the Bean Museum! Such beautiful animals. They just opened up the new Utah exhibit too! Last time I was there, they had just begun. I had a fun time going to their opening night event, and won a little prize:

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.

This place is great for kids to come and learn about the animal world. For a small location they have a LOT of exhibits. They have a recently constructed kids area that is very fun. There's a lot of cool things to see here. Definitely worth a visit, especially because it's free admission!

Limited but free parking. Have your license plate # ready to give them at the front desk and they’ll make a note. They’re renovating a few exhibits so not a lot open. Overall i was disappointed with what we saw compared to a few years ago. Only a few animals out. Most have a QR code you can scan and hear facts. But the most out of place were a few preachy exhibits upstairs about the importance of people eating bugs for protein and getting v’d to stop viruses. There’s one cool interactive Utah map upstairs with buttons that light up different cities and national parks. There’s a toddler-friendly slide and play cave on the main floor.

What a beautiful place. It's totally free which is so nice. So many beautiful animals. Not only is it educational but it's a good place to go in the winter as activity to get out of the snow.

A plethora of taxidermy and life science... done tastefully and masterfully. Admission is free to get close up to some of the most amazing lifelike nature you'll ever experience. Bring a friend, bring a camera, and bring a smile because you're gonna need all 3 to get your ultimate nature nerd on!

This is a great activity for a family of all ages as well as youth groups. My kids love this place. We go often and they don't seem to get tired of it. Plus we sneak in some learning which is always great. Come often to see the changes
