I'm so excited to tell you about the Greensboro Children's Museum located at 220 North Church Street in downtown Greensboro. It's a huge museum that looks more like a huge playground!! I had the best time during my recent visit. There is an area filled with all sorts of moving and shaking machines like a real fire truck and a real police car, and you can even board the cockpit of a DC-9 jet. What's even better, you can play in them. I sat in the pilot's seat of the jet and "flew" the airplane via computer flight simulation.

There is also a place in the museum called the Bubble Gallery. This is where you can make huge bubbles. Listen to how it works: you step into a hoop that creates a giant bubble around you. My tail always got in the way, though, but I doubt you will have the same problem.

Greensboro Children's Museum also has a mini-area with a grocery store where you can pretend to buy groceries like your parents do, a music room where you can make music and a construction zone where you can pretend to build a house.

Off to another great place!
