I enjoyed this place. Sure people say skip it and save money. But hey-why not experience it and enjoy your self. The robotic classroom scene was kinda neat.

At first we didn 't think this tour would be much but we were so surprised. You're on your own and it is very coo - now this is a place to take the kids. It is very well staged and there is a restful courtyard to sit for a spell. More

This place creates a step back in time, to imagine the surroundings of teaches and pupils in the early days to the USA. All children and parents should share this experience together! More
