The Old Slave Mart is located at 6 Chalmers Street and is a must-have on your itinerary, even if…read moreyou visit Charleston for a short time. In the heart of the French Quarter, near the French Huguenot Church, One of the first African-American slave museums in the country, Old Slave Mart, is set inside the building where enslaved people were auctioned before the Civil War and is a somber, but important part of a Charleston trip focusing on history. The tour is self-guided, with signage explaining the history. There are also personal accounts from enslaved individuals, artifacts, and audio and visual exhibits. It is a small but deeply affecting museum that gives a sobering view of history. Here, you can listen to the recording of an interview with a former slave. Old Slave Mart was a real slave auction site in the 18th and 19th centuries. Slave auctions were held here till 1863.

Our 3 year old had a blast- he especially loved the grocery store room that's set up to look like a Publix! The museum is a long building with a series of rooms in a straight row. When entering, you walk into the ticket area/gift shop and it's pretty much a straight shot down and then turn back around to go back through the rooms to exit. I wish we could have spent more time at the museum, but we had to leave after about an hour and a half because of our one year olds nap. We could have easily spent the better part of the day there playing! It's priced on the higher end in my opinion, but it is a nice place. Recommend to visitors with littles!

http://thechucktownchatter.com/museum-prefers-accuracy-to-politics/…read more Surviving multiple wars, fires and other natural disasters, the Confederate Museum stands at the heart of Charleston as an enduring emblem of the lives torn by the forces of war and a bastion of hope for future generations. Once a place for social gatherings and public events it is now held sacred as a memorial to those who sacrificed their lives for a strongly believed cause. Modeled after the Temple of the Wingless Victory in Athens, Greece, this structure is one of the oldest buildings in Chucktown, erected in 1841. Built upon an old creek bed and fallen trees, this hall once hosted a lively and fly-filled open-air market. Underneath the structure, exposed raw beef lay simmering in the balmy heat, while overhead, dances and receptions took place in 94-degree heat.

I'm so tempted to give 5 stars because Level Four is the best I've encountered, but two 1 hour…read moreevaluations (1 with their competition) isn't enough experience to provide an expert evaluation. I'm a fan of Level Four, but I don't feel qualified to say they're the best in the business, though they are certainly the best I've encountered in my limited experience. Level Four has actual metrics they use to make their recommendation whereas their competition (specifically: Cranial Technologies, Inc) seems to make their recommendations based on feelings and assumptions. Though my assessment may not be valid, Level Four seems to have a much more accurate and quantitative system of evaluation which provides ratios and percentages and uses fancy math to describe the symmetry of a child's head while the other place took a neat 3D picture and pointed to parts of his skull saying things like; "that looks a little uneven there" and "that probably won't correct as he gets older." Level Four's pricing is almost half of what the other place charges for what appears to be a nearly identical product, but I feel like Level Four does a better job evaluating and they were not pushy at all. At Cranial Technologies, Inc, I felt a little pressured to proceed with treatment though they were very nice. Level Four's office was not as fancy as Cranial Technologies, but it was clean and the office staff was friendly - we felt very comfortable and the man that evaluated my boy was super gentle, very genuine and likable. In the end, Level Four said that my son does not need to use a band - his symmetry is not perfect, but it is extremely good, nothing abnormal and will improve as he develops.
