Mid America Science Museum has been around since I was a kid, so last summer I took my little boy. It's an affordable way to spend the day and educational to boot! They had some neat things that I remembered all those years ago when I was a child that my son enjoyed. Like the BIG blocks of ice that you stick your finger in to see it melt. There are LOTS of hands on activities for kids of all ages to enjoy! There is even a short nature trail to walk. I enjoyed seeing it again thru my son's eyes.
