Do you know what kind of dinosaurs lived in Delaware? (Hint, not the t-rex).
Or what kind of animals live at the bottom of the ocean?
These are just a few of the many discoveries waiting for you at the Delaware Museum of Nature & Science. The museum encourages visitors to discover how nature connects us all through exploring dynamic and diverse ecosystems.
Learn all of that & more at this year's Family Fun Day!

Interact with live birds from around the world with Animal Behavior & Conservation Connections from 10:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m. (12:30-1 p.m. will be a members’ only live bird meet and greet) and have your face painted by Dori of Party Business, 10 a.m.–2 p.m.
