  2. The Center of Science & Industry (COSI)—in Columbus and just two hours north of the Creation Museum—features 300 interactive exhibits throughout seven exhibition areas. Explore hidden worlds under the seas or become an engineer. Explore the universe and land a rocket ship—or play tricks on your senses. Test the laws of gravity on the country’s only high-wire unicycle! COSI is the ultimate playground for your imagination and curiosity. A bit of evolution/millions of years here and there, so don’t forget your Museum Guide!
  3. The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis (just two hours from the Creation Museum) is the largest children’s museum in the world with more than 400,000 square-feet, which houses 11 major galleries. Make sure you read Dinosaurs for Kids before you go. This will provide your kids with the correct biblical understanding of dinosaurs before going into their ardently millions-of-years Dinosaur Exhibit.
  4. At Conner Prairie (near Indianapolis, just two hours from the Creation Museum), you’ll journey back to long ago and experience how life has changed. Travel to an Indian camp, pioneer village, Victorian farm, more hands-on areas, Discovery Station indoor play and learning area, and a historic house and gardens.
  5. Mammoth Cave National Park (three hours south of the museum) contains the world’s largest cave system (so far discovered). Just make sure you understand the true history of cave formations first before you go.

  7. Since 1884, Louisville Slugger has put prime lumber in the hands of the greatest players of the game. A visit to the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory (in Louisville—1 ½ hours from the Creation Museum) shows you how the sport has changed a bit between then and now, but the “crack of the bat” remains one of the sporting world’s most thrilling moments. Make sure you don’t miss the factory tour—you even get a miniature souvenir bat at the end of the tour!
  8. Experience the “Greatest story ever told” at The Living Word Outdoor Drama. Relive the life of our Savior, Jesus Christ, in a time when God manifested His glory and love to man through His son.
