This actually has little to do with beer (for once) and all about the Grand Rapids Children's Museum!
HAHAHAHA. And you thought it was about beer.
We had a cold, wet, late fall day in Grand Rapids and our only concern was which museum to take Hamburger to? And what sandwich to order from Founders. Ok you got me, we started the afternoon at Founders, so a little to do with beer.
There are tons of great museums in Grand Rapids, but on this day it was between the Children's Museum and the Grand Rapids Public Museum.
The public museum was making a pretty good case for itself as it has the dinosaur exhibit going on now, but I had already seen it in Detroit and was looking for something more interactive. Plus I had never been to the children's museum. I realize that this was for Burger but trust me, you'll have just as much fun.
Some of the "exhibits" include a giant kitchen/grocery store area that provides endless fun, An entire wall of lightbrites, rock climbing wall, animal hospital, sand table, tree house, musical instruments and make shift instruments and countless other installations I couldn't begin to explain.
Not to mention every one's favorite and the messiest... BUBBLES!
Ever wonder what it's like to stand inside a giant bubble?
It looks something like this
Don't worry, soap and towels are provided when you're finished. Like you'll really need the soap...
And good luck prying your kid from the construction zone!
With so many exhibits to experience make sure you get there as early as possible to allow for maximum fun time! They also offer different events for kids of all ages and have family nights on Thursdays from 5:00-8:00 p.m. for $1.50 admission per person.
We definitely can't wait to go back!
