This is a place that I visited often when I was a child, I always loved when my Mom took me there, there were always so many interesting things to see and read about.
They have a real submarine that you can step into, also a Coal Mine,Fairy castle, Target America: Opening Eyes to the Damage Drugs Cause,Animated Industrial Gears,Apollo 8 Command Module,The Chick Hatchery,The Great Train Story,Mercury Space Capsule,Petroleum Planet, and so much more, I encourage anyone to stop by and check it out if you are ever in Chicago, this is a place you would not want to miss seeing.
