After you have fueled up, it’s time to have some fun! Head downtown to spend some time at one of the family-friendly museums. The Discovery Center is full of fun and interactive exhibits that lead to hours of entertainment. Additionally, The Rockford Art Museum is right next door and is another top attraction in the area. For more educational fun, head down the street to Burpee Museum and visit Jane, the world's most complete and best-preserved juvenile T. rex.
There’s so much more to see and do in the Rockford region! For an action filled afternoon, make your way to Snow Park at Alpine Hills. Guests can participate in several different winter sports including snow tubing. For more fresh air, go for a hike at Rock Cut State Park. Explore miles of trails through the beautiful wintery wonderland. You can also visit Nicholas Conservatory and Gardens for a tropical escape that will leave you speechless.
