    Science Museums
    The Works Museum image
    Upon walking in it was a pretty spacious environment. I personally wondered if my kids of 12, 9, and 5 would be content as we had 4-5 hours to burn. We first went upstairs with limited rooms open over a weekend. They still enjoyed the crafts and activities in the room. As we meandered downstairs, there was more than enough to keep them occupied for large chunks of time. The favorites they came away with were hands on building and ingenuity stations. A good time was had by all. See more..
