I've driven by The Military Museums a thousand times but it never occured to me that this would be something to do with my kids. With their mother's blessing, and help from a deal on TeamBuy, I decide to escape the 4 feet of snow and test the museum out.
My children are aged between 7 and 12 years old and I am amazed to say that each of them had an awesome time. It was educational AND entertaining. I could imagine spending an entire day there myself and still find myself coming back again. It gave me a greater appreciation of historical as well as current sacrifices that are made on a daily basis. If you are looking for an inexpensive activity for the whole family I would highly recommend The Military Museums.
