Steve’s take
The largest children's museum in the world. Not the state, not the country — the world. Five floors of dinosaurs, space exhibits, a working carousel, and a hot wheels track that will make your kid forget Disney exists for approximately four hours. If you're driving through Indianapolis and you skip this, your children will find out when they're older and they will never forgive you. Budget half a day minimum.
