    In the first line of your intro, the word "chartered" is misspelled as "charted". I look for things like that!

    The Museum of East Texas, or MET (which makes it sound very cosmopolitan) is a great destination…read morefor anyone interested in the history of our small part of East Texas and a great place to take kids for some cultural education. I visited a few years back when they had the traveling Audubon Collection on exhibit and really couldn't make a higher recommendation. The MET has an extensive permanent collection and a great rotation of visiting exhibits that make every visit a unique experience. Lufkin may be a small community but this is no small museum, and is on par with anything the bigger cities have to offer!

    What a fun experience and place for a birthday party! My Grandbud celebrated his 3rd birthday here…read morewith friends and family, and I am so glad I was in town long enough to be a part of it. A great place to hold parties, play, learn, be curious, and more importantly, have fun! He and his friends had so much fun exploring and playing everywhere! They could pretend to be service heroes, doctors, working at a restaurant or at the grocery store. Be an astronaut, play on a ship, and learn with a bunch of gadgets and gizmos. I would absolutely recommend this place for birthday parties and school field trips. As always, Enjoy & Happy Learning!

When you enter, you can choice to go right or left, two sides to the center. To the right is a few games, (such as connect four), life size light bright, and a cool vacuum that you put fluff balls in and watch how it filters through the vacuum suction tubes. You can walk through the volcano and experience what an earthquake could possibly feel like. Walk all the way up to the ship deck and see the world. Down on the main floor, my granddaughter loved learning the magic of being on television. When coming in, if you turned left, you enter the world of life skills and career options. The makeshift grocery store is very realistic and makes it fun for kids to learn to shop and organize. The kids can pretend to work in medical clinics, veterinarian clinics, restaurant personnel (food prep/chef/server), be an astronaut and explore the outer world, firefighter, police officer, lawyer, and/or judge, medical specialist, and more. There is a separate room for birthdays or gatherings. There is a very low price of $10 pre adult/student and discounts offered for seniors and military. I didn't get pictures while exploring with my grandkids, but it really is a fun little place to go explore. You can visit their website for more pictures and info. https://www. discoveryscienceplace.org
