I visited here with my 3 children in an attempt to check out the tractors and also kill some time to give the wife some free time of her own. We all had a blast and definitely go back if given the chance. My kids are all under 10 and had plenty to do, see, touch, listen, and play with while there. From a very interactive history of John Deere the company, the tractors, the people, and the places; everything was awesome! I don’t know who had more fun there, me or the kiddos?! I recommend this place to anyone and everyone, all ages and stages, and especially families.

My daughter and I had a great time going to the musical. She didn't believe that she would enjoy it. It sounded strange and set in the future. It was fun.
