Fun and Games and More! by Kami G. at InsiderPages
Contributor at Insider Pages
Looking for some family fun on a rainy day? Then pack up the kids and take them to CMR! There are endless opurtunities for learning and fun. Even the grown ups will love it! The entrance fee is a bit high,so it can be an expensive way to spend the day. But, even the littlelest kids can get involved and participate! You can go and stay for hours, which sure beats paying a ton of money for a movie, which will be soon over. Give your kids a chance to use their minds, and exercise their bodeis in this safe, fun, stimulating enviornment!
A place to climb, explore, experiment and play until every surface area is smudged with fingerprints.

Overview
Bright, colorful and crowded, the museum keeps an eye out for a kid's best interest. It's divided into different sections: How it Works, which lets kids experiment with tools, materials and their own endless energy; Feeling Good Neighborhood, featuring a functioning apple orchard and a monster-sized digestive system; Our Great Outdoors, possibly the only cave that's not off-limits to kids and the Art Studio where the paint gets on someone else's walls for a change.
The Appeal
Not only does the atmosphere encourage plenty of child/parent interaction, it also offers parents a quick respite from the action when it becomes exhausting. Check out the benches beside the Great Outdoors area, or slip into Little CMOR, which caters to the youngest visitors to the museum.
