Air and Space museum is an amazing part of our community and a great place to spend an afternoon with a couple of rowdy boys - one of which is fascinated with rockets and planes! Having two small kids means the word "museum" doesn't come up a lot for us, but they've done a great job of providing activities for kids that do not involve actually going inside - correctly knowing that years of museum memberships will be in our future once they're hooked.... and a little older. Carson calls it "airport park" and he and Nolan flew a helicopter in the playground and ran around the grounds under the planes on display outside (see Carson in the picture below going "nose-to-nose" with a MiG-23 - literally!). Inside there are even a few activities free of charge, like a bi-plane ride for the little ones. And rumor has it there's more to come with the addition of an
indoor water park planned in the next couple years. (Complete with a 747 on the roof of course!) This mommy says, "Bring it on!" We love our outings to "Airport Park" and welcome more kid-friendly activities sprinkled with educational opportunity in Mac!
