You probably want some place to take the kids for the WHOLE DAY… well, we can’t recommend Tom Tits Experiments enough. It really will take you THE WHOLE DAY to enjoy every single exhibit, experiment, show and outdoor activity. And, don’t skip out on their delicious lunches (reasonably priced, too).
