Pastimes & Playthings
Third Floor, Stillman Building
Spend a chilly winter's day inside playing with your family and friends in our new activity center -- Pastimes & Playthings. Step back in time and try your luck at an old-fashioned game of skittles or checkers. Test your skills with tavern puzzles and toys of long ago. Entertain your crew with a variety of parlor games such as charades or simply spend a few relaxing moments revisiting some of our favorite classic children's books. In addition, there is a puppet stage available for parents to put on a show for their children. There's fun for the young and the young at heart.
For all ages. No additional fee. All materials provided. Open throughout the year.
