2. NATIONAL HISTORY MUSEUM
The towers, spires, and stripes make the Natural History Museum look
more like a cathedral than somewhere you might expect to find dinosaurs.
The crowd-pleasing collection comprises more than 80 million natural
specimens, and the museum is always full of kids having the time of their
life. (The museum is open late on the last Friday of the month if you’re
looking for a more grown-up experience.) You’ll get lost in here and the kids
will not want to leave, ever.
