My mom and I spent a couple hours on a Saturday exploring out the Connecticut museum of culture and history, which we had both never been to before! The architecture of the building was pretty cool, as it used to be an old mansion. It took us about 2 hours to get through everything. Their permanent exhibit on the inn and tavern signs was cool to look at, and we enjoyed their current exhibit on coffee. There’s interactive experiences for all ages, and I’m so glad we visited. Highly recommend going to learn more about CT’s history!

This was an excellent museum for all ages. There were several interactive exhibits. My kids especially loved dressing up in colonial attire and pretending to cook dinner. I liked the exhibit on the Revolutionary War that presented various perspectives.
