    Great museum for children. Found this in trip advisor for our visit to N. Carolina. Lots of options and there is something for all age ranges. Our toddler was able to play for ours and we had an impromptu volleyball game with another family. Also love the movie theater that offers movie showings for the children. This is a great day out for the family and a one stop shop.

    Great activity for kids! My kids love this place. It’s very affordable and will have your kids active and imagining all day long. There is no shortage of activities to do and the coolest pirate ship. Very cute for kids. It’s very clean and well run. Great museum guys!
