Please Touch Museum re-opens

Liberty-Arm-and-Torch_000.jpgAs far as kids are concerned, Saturday is the big day.

It's when the Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia re-opens in a restored National Historic Landmark building. The expanded attraction now resides in Memorial Hall in Fairmount Park, the last major building remaining from the 1876 Centennial exhibition.

Six new exhibits, a huge toy sculpture, a collection of Philadelphia CHildhood Treasures and a 100-year-old Dentzel Carousel join an array of interactive, hands-on learning opportunities for kids and their families.

Admission is a bit pricey at $15 per person for everyone except children younger than one, but the place definitely looks cool -- a true kids' paradise.

If you go, leave a comment and let everyone know if it's worth the trip -- and the admission!
