It is big museum and it has many interesting expositions. We saw big dinosaur bones and skeletons. Also lots of stuffed animals. It is very close to subway and Central park. Also you can see big whale

The American Museum of Natural History is a fantastic spot, especially for families and children. If you want to explore in detail, plan for more than 3 hours, but you can rush through in 1-2 hours if you're short on time. While it's a great experience, if you're only in New York for a few days, you might want to prioritize other attractions

While we take full accountability for going to the museum on a busy Saturday, as someone with a physical disability, it was a challenging building to navigate. We were able to find one set of elevators, however had difficulty getting on them due to large crowds and strollers needing them as well. We used the stairs mostly as a result, which is difficult for me. At the top of one set of stairs (1st to 2nd floor), we were trying to get our bearings (there was no signs, and I needed to shift back into my prosthetic leg) and a security guard yelled, "Go this way or that way, you can't just stand here." It was embarrassing. Overall, though, the exhibits were wonderful with informative signage and interesting notes. Every exhibit pulled us in, and we found ourselves wanting to learn more about every single thing we saw. I would definitely bring a smaller sized stroller or wear little ones so they can get up close (families with wagons and larger strollers seemed to be struggling). Also - wonderfully clean bathrooms!
