The History Colorado Center is a pretty museum with a bunch of interactive exhibits where you can let your kids pretty much run free. It does have 4 floors of exhibits so it can take several hours. It covers everything from farming in the east to mining in the west to native peoples. I wish it had a few more exhibits and a little more depth to some subjects, but I really liked it.

Great museum all about colorado. Great for older kids but adults can have a great time as well. I learned something! Plan on spending 2+ hours there. Parking garage located next door. If you get a membership it's almost the cost of the ticket plus you get passes to Georgetown railroad that are valued more than the membership!
