Our daughter got to visit at 18 months and we decided at 2 years we should take her back. What a difference 6 months makes. Such a wide variety of places and things for any child to enjoy. Fly an airplane, drive a train, climb a spiral tower, be on TV, do arts and crafts. An entire day could be... More

Wonderful find! My kids aged 9, 7, 4 and 1 all had a great time. Imaginative play for the little ones and lots to learn and discover for my older two. We will definitely be back! More
