What to do and see in Wasatch Range, Wasatch Range: The Best Children's Museums
Stretching 160 miles through Utah, the Wasatch Range makes a rugged, glacial backdrop for the 85% of the states population living within 15 miles. Mount Nebo is highest at 11,928 feet, but the peaks around Alta and Park City are most popular. "The greatest snow on earth" falls on these spectacular slopes. Lone Peaks granite outcrops provide top climbing. Canyons and valleys are loved by fly-fishermen and hikers. After all that adventure, retire to a hip restaurant or enticing hot tub in chic Park City.

This is a truly amazing kids museum. So many ways to stimulate their minds from science and music to role play and physical activity. Staff was friendly and the museum was well kept. I'll definitely come back.

When I first approached (which was on a whelm), it seemed very low-key and not as formal as most other business act. The workers were quite young and acted as such. However, after learning about the process, it was a lot of fun deciding the dyes and add-ins, etc. Near the end (after removing the soap from the mold), I thought I would be done. However, I learned that you can actually paint the top layers of the soap. It was quite fun. Even now, months later, I still have the soap in our sink as more decoration than for cleaning hands. Who knows though, I may decide to use it up and return to make some more another day. Note: when I was there, you had to air dry your hands after using any water (including bathroom). I would have gladly paid the extra 5 cents to have some paper towels or even towels to dry them off. Although others may prefer their extra conservationist attitudes, I would have appreciated more the comfort.
4. Butterfly Biosphere

The biosphere itself is one of the most peaceful places you'll ever find yourself. It's humid for the butterflies, so between the warmth and nature you'll find yourself relax very quickly. We're lucky to enjoy a place like this in Utah. From what I understand it's the largest indoor butterfly habitat in North America. The museum portion of the facility is also a lot of fun, great for kids, and offers a variety of engaging educational experiences.
5. Museum of Anthropology

3.0 based on 1 reviews
At the Museum we treat Anthropology as more than the mere study of cultures; it is the study of human behavior - past and present. We ask the big questions about human experience: • Who are we and where did we come from? • How have we changed and where are we going? • What is culture and how do we share it? Join us in exploring the worlds of Anthropology through a visit today!
