Greensboro seems to do well with places to let children explore and run off some energy. I've been…read morewith the grands to the Science Center many times, and today was my first visit with them to the Greensboro Children's Museum. They have carefully and creatively designed areas for the children to explore. I was impressed that some of them are designed for the 5-year-old + crowd to create things to make them work, such as a movable pipe system to create paths for balls to go through. There were so many hands-on activities for the kids. A grocery store, pizza parlor, Postal Service, and Medical Center, are all designed to let the kids pretend to their heart's content. Kids seemed to love the transportation area, will full-size police car, fire truck, mail truck, EMS, and my personal favorite - the NASCAR race cars. The final area we visited (my son-in-law knew to make it the last thing) was the waterworks play area. Very clever water activities for all the kids and wisely placed dryers to dry wet hands (maybe some shirts as well!) Since it was December and chilly we didn't explore the huge outdoor activity area. Very nice museum for the kids!

A Greensboro Classic, Fun for Kids and Adults Alike!…read more I've attended a few of the adult-only events (On-Tap, 90s Night) and a couple of standard visits to the Miriam P. Brenner Children's Museum, and they are always such a treat! It's so much fun to explore the exhibits without kids around and enjoy the playful, creative atmosphere. The museum was the first children's museum in the Triad and still features some of its original exhibits -- including the iconic big red chair, which is a total photo favorite! During regular hours, the museum is perfect for kids ages 0-12, with hands-on learning and interactive play spaces that spark curiosity and imagination. But my personal favorite -- the Neptune Climber XXL -- is definitely for all ages! It's an amazing structure that brings out everyone's inner child. I mean it is 2 stories high. The staff is friendly, the events are well-organized, and the museum continues to be a special part of Greensboro. Whether you're bringing little ones or attending an adult night, this place never fails to bring smiles and good memories.

We arrived about 1:30pm on a Saturday afternoon. The parking area had a dozen or so cars. We proceeded to the covered barn and were immediately greeted by the family. The young man was friendly and efficient, we also learned that veterans receive free admission which was a welcome surprise, very nice touch! We also learned they have swag including shirts, baseball hats, stickers and decals. They were selling Colts signature honey and Carolina Gold oils made from sunflowers. They were down to their last bottle of garlic oil so they set it aside for us. We grabbed a bucket which was already equipped with cutters for us to cut our own sunflowers. The back field was where we were headed and the casual stroll back was enjoyable. There are beautiful flowering bushes and flower fields along the way and I was able to capture several cool pics with butterflies as well. The sunflower field was beautiful and we immediately began taking pictures. We commented that we should have brought the drone to capture the farm. We ended up cutting eight sunflowers to take home and arrange. Once up at the covered barn area they wrapped the sunflowers up and we selected our various swag items. Very cool local family business. We asked and they told us this is their sixth year. Support local and enjoy the beauty of Dogwood Farms.

It's such a peaceful and relaxing experience. The best part is that it's so inexpensive. It only costs $5 to explore the grounds, and is $1 for picked sunflowers and $5 for 12 wildflower stems. They provide the buckets and the clippers. You get to pick whichever flowers you'd like. They'll even wrap up the flowers for you before you leave.

There's very few places to set down, and most of them are in one area around. The food areas, the glow in the dark. Eggs didn't glow in the dark. The kids had to go way out at least 2 acres away from the main building to do the Easter egg hunt hunt. There was no lighted station to keep an eye on your kids to have your kids. Meet I was a basket case worried that our granddaughter wouldn't meet up with us again because there was people everywhere, and even though I was physically unable to walk all the way down there. And as several times about benches, three different people passed me on tractors with trailers on atvs. Nobody offered to help me walk down there. Get a chair for me. Nothing very rude, very, very rude. The place looked like a redneck thrown together. Junk pile, it was not worth $15 a person. We had to buy a coat for our granddaughter. Because it got cold and we weren't expecting that, and they sold it to us at full price. Even though the shoulders were faded from it, setting on the hanger for so long. I will never ever ever drive the hour to get there. Even if somebody paid me Oh, and the flowers that you pay to pick fifteen dollars for a vase, and you can get your flowers.They look like they wouldn't even make it twenty four hours after you picked them.They were that spent.

The alpacas wander around you while you're doing yoga and the instructor encourages you to take pictures. Candice was our instructor & she was phenomenal. She was so kind & encouraging which made the class a lot of fun. After yoga the staff is more than happy to take photos of you with the alpacas. You also get a bucket of food to feed them after the class is over. Alpaca yoga is only a couple of months a year but if you have the chance to do it, I highly recommend! You can also visit the alpacas and feed them for $10 which I'll definitely be back to do. They also have pumpkins and Christmas trees. Such a cool place to have in Greensboro!

The Alpacas were not scary or intimidating. They are used to people and gentle. You aren't in the yard with them but rather you extend your arm through the fence to feed them. The gift shop had sweaters, socks, and various other wool items. I would go back for sure.

Each individual area is designed for children's play and imagination but open enough for parents to keep an eye on children and more than one area at a time. Thus it is an easy place to take multiple children and have them enjoy the experience in a safe fun place. My only complaint was I thought we were doing a Father's Day gift, but it was just a card. One child chose to do it. The other child chose not to. I was disappointed as I paid thinking we were gonna make a cute little gift maybe a tiny bird house or something however, the children did have a good time and enjoyed themselves very for several hours.

Staff was huddled in the painting area. Kids were running around freely as to be expected. Just slightly disappointed with some of the zones. A lot of them were missing items that you would need to interact with and some just had a few items that looked like donated toys from goodwill. For what it's worth it's not a bad space to spend a couple of hours. But my kids got bored pretty quickly. Bathrooms were semi clean. But did have the tools needed for toddlers potty training. Overall not too bad. I wouldn't come here every week. Just once every now and then maybe.

Keep walking and they have markers and colored pencils and paper to draw. In the back they have an easel wall - string and clips with color paper to paint. There were tables for clay and one attendant was setting out mirrors for the kids to do self portraits. All this was free when we went On Fridays they have story time and art for a nominal cost. Check their website for more information. I don't know all the things here :)
