The Louisiana Children's Museum’s 30,000 square feet of exhibit space and programs offer children a diverse set of activities that promote learning from reading and math skills to architectural ideas and the nuances of grocery shopping – through interactive play. Whether they are learning what bones they use to ride a bike, alongside Mr. Bones or loading up a cargo ship in the Little Port of New Orleans exhibit, children take an active role in their own learning.
No trip to New Orleans is complete without visiting the famous Cafe Du Monde. The 24-hour cafe was first established in the Crescent City in 1862 and continues to be a traditional coffee shop that serves up dark roasted coffee, white and chocolate milk, fresh squeezed orange juice, soft drinks, world famous beignets and more. Whatever you do, don't leave without trying a beignet from this local attraction.
For a shopping experience you won't find anywhere else, check out the Shops at Jax Brewery. One-of-a-kind stores, retail favorites and art galleries are just a few things you'll see around the brewery. While you're there, be sure to visit the Jax Promenade Balcony for a breathtaking view of the Mississippi River.
