Children Museum of Virginia

The biggest children historical center in Virginia with 72,000 sq. ft. of fun, intelligent, hands-on things to keep kids bodies and psyches engaged for a considerable length of time including: Bubbles; Working Port; Tot Yard; Lancaster Antique Toy and Train accumulation; My Backyard and Beyond; Dr. Powers Traveling Energy Extravaganza; and significantly more.
"It's the main exhibition hall where you can come and touch things. You need to stroll around, keep your hands in your pockets. Here we say go up, touch it, play with it, push it, make sense of what influences it to work."
Situated in downtown Portsmouth, with simple access to stopping in addition to a few different exhibition halls, shops and delightful "child benevolent" eateries.
