the gems are amazing. i had seen something more impressive at just one other place - probably one of the smithsonians. would people agree the gems/minerals is a superior exhibit, or have i just not gotten around enough?

also - dinosaurs. i believe we were surpassed for most complete skeleton by a museum in chicago a few years back.

the carnegie museum is incredible in its own right. i go maybe once every 10+ years. i'll go again soon. the names alone on the exterior wall are inspiring - shakespears, et al....

Thanks, I'll definitely take my son down a few times to see the dinosaurs.

In February most of the Pittsburgh museums participated in a program where each weekend day had a different free museum for people that were members of another museum. We have a Phipps family membership and ended up seeing the Heinz History Center, the Aviary, and the Natural History Museum for free. It was a great way to go to places we wouldn't normally take a 2 year old to. The family friendly places that are easily accessible in Pittsburgh continue to amaze me.
