DOWNTOWN.   Located on the back side of the Creamery building off of Tucker Street, Playspace is a great destination for kids and their parents. Through interactive play, the hands on "exhibits" teach children math and science concepts, as well as skills like counting money, telling time, and map reading. Opportunities for creative learning abound, in kid-size versions of a restaurant, castle, train station with train, fire engine and car, hospital, bank, and grocery store; imaginations soar in the art room, music and movement room, puppet theater, and water play area. Ample opportunities for dress-up and role-play, too!

If you happen to be in Raleigh with your young ones and need a break, take them to Playspace. Organized, supervised activities are provided at this nonprofit "children's first museum," which presents educational sessions on the hour. (from Southern Living)
