"Great activity for family with kids"

This was a great placec to spend about an hour and a half while we were in the Berkshires.  Animagic is a hands-on sort of place, casual attitude, enthusiastic instructor, charming space, lots of things to look at.  It's not just plopping the kids in front of a computer screen to watch a video, they are actually making something.  We learned some interesting facts about the special effects business in the Berrkshires but mostly it was just about having fun.  Sending some quality time with the kids on a cold rainy day.  Or if we're back in the summer, I imagine a good place to get out of the heat for a bit.  To that end Animagic served it's purpose.

Kids really enjoyed it and the session takes long enough to remain interesting, but not too long that the little ones get fidgety.

"A hidden Jewel "

If you haven't taken your family to this very hidden treasure, now is the time.
It is the best kind of hands on learning that is fun for everyone of all ages. This is a great asset to Lee and is a Tourist destination for those in the know. The sad part is that it is not known, even by locals. So here is notice of a great hidden jewel that you need to find.
