As "out of towners" we had a great time at the Virginia Living Museum as a family. Both my toddlers (boy and girl) are dinosaur lovers and that is what attracted us there! They had so much fun and we made some beautiful memories! I would have gave the museum 5 stars but they had NO FOOD VENDOR 😣 That was a lot of walking and exploring to not have any food or drinks available for purchase. Aside from that, an awesome place to visit especially with small children.
