Aquacreations

The Children's Museum of Richmond has been touted as one of the East Coast's most exciting, innovative museums where the words "hands off" don't apply. The kids are encouraged to touch everything, and that invitation to interact with the attractions and exhibits they see proves to be just the thing to spark their curiosity and creativity. The kids can chase butterflies in Shadow Play, create artwork in the art room and then take their creations home with them, as well as learn the value of community and sharing as they interact with their fellow adventurers.

The family will love enjoying Richmond's natural amenities when visiting James River Park. The scenery at this riverside park is breathtaking. Some of the park's most popular sites include Belle Isle, Pony Pasture, Huguenot Woods and the main park area; all of these areas offer more than a few opportunities to get up close to Richmond's natural beauty. You can also enjoy tubing, fishing, kayaking and bird watching. Learn about this natural attraction on one of the walking tours or take a leisurely stroll down the newly added Canal Walk.
