Time Travel, Anyone? Why, yes, thank you!

My family time traveled this weekend.  



At History Colorado Center, anyone can travel back in time...and have tons of fun doing it!  Who knew that Colorado had such a rich and interesting history (the museum was huge!)?  

We attended at birthday party at History Colorado, and none of us could stop talking about it.  This place has something (mostly hands-on) for every age group.  My two year old milked a cow, drove a Model-T and went down a slide (about a million times).  My 7 year old collected eggs, turned them in to the General Store and tried her luck on a ski jump (she crashed).  My 11 year old experienced what it would be like to live in the Japanese internment camps, and pushed a time machine around a giant floor map (his choice...1912...Molly Brown).

The giant time machine, driving a Model-T car

We were lucky enough to partake in the amazing food at History Colorado Center...it is restaurant quality and date-night worthy!  We tried the pizza ($15-$17 for a 16") and the to-die-for cupcakes ($1.50 each).  The Center has its own catering company in-house and you can easily add food to your event...and this is no ordinary birthday party fare!

So, the next time you are planning a party for your kiddo (or an event for yourself), consider the History Colorado Center...time travel is not just for the movies anymore!
