The park has lots of hands-on exhibits for children to walk through and interact with history. There is a historic carousel, train cars, old cars to walk and play in. The historic village is perfect for a young child's imagination because they can go to school with a school teacher who often plays along with children and a house where they can play along with planting and weaving. It is very interactive.
Q:
Does it cost to get in
A:
Does it cost to drive through and look at Christmas lights
