Exhibits frequently change bringing in different attractions throughout the year. Membership is a good deal if you are a frequent visitor. They offer summer camps for kids, IMAX productions and even educator workshops!
The Museum of Natural Science in Houston is a MUST SEE and has attractions for all ages. We happened to visit during their Titanic Exposition, which was well worth the $15 entry fee.

This had a lot to offer depending what they have on display and it is worth a visit. During our visit they have exhibit of the Titanic and the Chinese Terracotta Soldiers. Place that whole family can enjoy.
