A visit to the Lake Erie Nature and Science Center

Ready for an adventure? With two little boys, we are always looking for an adventure. When we heard about the Lake Erie Nature and Science Center in Bay Village, we decided to take a trip out. Inside we saw turtles, several fish tanks, lizards and snakes. Outside we saw rabbits, deer, a fox, several types of birds and a raccoon, just to name a few. There were so many animals, my kids called it the "mini zoo". Not only did we see them, we had an opportunity to pet several of the creatures. This would be a great opportunity for your children to discover wild animals up close and personal.

And if the animals weren’t enough, they have a planetarium! Your kids can sit under the stars and learn about constellations and planets. We sat through a show called Twinkle Tots. It was amazing, for both children and adults.

The adventure was not only fun and educational… it was economical too! This would be a great outing for one of those boring summer days! I hope your adventure is just as exciting as ours!
