Step into an enchanted wonderland of fortune tellers, mannequins and antique arcade games. Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum has all of this and more--- waaaaay more.
The carnival-esque atmosphere is unique and packed with one discovery after the other. Every inch of space is covered with an unusual display, a rare poster or something unexpected hanging from the ceiling. There are machines that move, rides that entertain and prizes galore. This museum also features a snack area that offers concession-stand treats like cotton candy, popcorn and hot dogs.
Tommy, move over, because a new Pinball Wizard is movin' in! So many pinball machines to choose from--- if the razzle, dazzle, bells and whistles don't do it for you, nbd, there's more.
We hit all the rides that we could. Older kids won't be able to go on most of them, because: weight restrictions. We moved on to have our fortunes read by a creepy anatromic gypsy. This was one of my favorite parts, but def creeped out the littlest.

As the kids have gotten older, what they consider fun has changed. So, the majority of our time was spent on arcade games and trying to win tickets. We had so much fun playing Skee-ball and spinning the Wheel of Fortune.
The kids stuffed their faces with all the candy they won and talked about the favorite things they saw at the museum. As we drove down the highway on our way home, they already started plotting their next trip.
