A short daytime tour with a costumed deputy: kids step inside the old cells and hear the inmates' stories. It's about crime, so it suits older kids best.
Hop on and off a narrated trolley and let the kids pick the stops. Collapsible strollers can ride along.
A recreated 1908 general store where costumed guides demonstrate odd old gadgets, so kids get to see early-1900s inventions actually working.
A quiet courtyard tucked away from the street for lunch, with pasta and chicken parmesan most kids will happily eat.
The play area is fenced in, with slides and climbing bars built to be accessible, so every kid gets a turn and a runner can't get far.
Soft serve in a baby-bird cone or a small cup, with toppings to build yourself. Inside is tiny, so plan on the patio benches.
