If you wanna torture your kids, take them to the museum in Jericho. Pretension meets boredom.

That museum is so tiny they would only be bored for 10 minutes. If that.

It'd likely be much larger if they weren't fighting the disrepair of the mill building and retaining wall that collapsed a few years back. Also used to have the pedestrian bridge which is still signed out front. I heard the downstairs is cool with old mill equipment, but haven't seen it. I'd say it's still as much worth a visit as the Hyde Log Cabin in the islands. Small museums are the best museums.

I agree it’s a unique little museum and adds local flavor.
Not sure what “pretentiousness” the other commenter was referring to. Anything you can tour in a couple minutes can’t really be that pretentious. My kids enjoyed it back in the day. I took them to that museum, walked the trails in the park out back, then went to Snowflake Chocolates around the corner.

hahahaha I used to live across the street from that museum and I recall a friend’s ex reading the poems framed on the back wall out loud to her. I remember nothing except that cringe.
