Here are a few museum exhibits that are perfect for families. Just find out the one that interests your kids.
Rain Room
This exhibit can tell where visitors are when it is raining, so you can walk around freely without getting wet. The installation(安装) has been made skillfully, so only 10 people are allowed in at a time, which means there's always a line. Still, where else can kids run around in a rainstorm without being blamed by their parents?
