Great fun for adults and children. They have go carts, and bumper boats. The bumper boats were a big hit with my son! Miniature golf, snacks, drinks, games. A lot of fun! You'll have a great time here. It's cheaper to get the day pass rather than to get tickets for individual things, but the day passes are a little on the high side. Other than that, great place to spend a day!

The Greensboro Children's Museum is an amazing and fun-filled place. My son's favorite items in the museum are the following: the fire engine and the airplane cockpit. Both of those items are [b]NOT[/b] child size models. These are the real things!! There's a child size grocery store, fully stocked with miniature grocery carts and cash registers. They have a puppet area, drama area, music area, post office, pretend bank (with working ATM that gives you play money), a sand play area, construction area, and a whole lot more. I love the fact they have an area set aside for the 2 and under crowd -- filled with age appropriate toys and activities for that age range of children. Admission price is reasonable with discount times on Friday night and Sunday. Membership is definitely worth the cost. Staff is helpful and friendly. Parking is free and usually plentiful.

What a wonderful and fun toy store. It is full of unique toys and books -- stuff you wouldn't find in ToysRUs. They offer a superb quality of toys and games and books. They tend to stock high-end merchandies: so you will find tons of stuff by Melissa&Doug but not necessarily Mattel brand products. Once they didn't have what I wanted to buy (although they carried many items from the same manufacturer), the district manager offered to special order it for me at no additional cost. This is definitely a full service toy store -- they will gladly wrap your purchases for you. There is even a play area to entertain your children while you shop. They have a great selection of $1-2 items -- great for stocking stuffers or a special treat! The staff is always friendly and helpful. Parking is plentiful.

My husband absolutely LOVES this store because they carry a ton of Miami stuff. He is a native Floridian and follows his team. We tailgate all the time and drive and fly to see games all over. All of our tailgating stuff comes from the conference store and my dad had a terribly easy time of buying his Christmas presents. The store is a little small, but it is just because they have SO much merchandise in there. If you need sports related stuff, drop in.

I collect dolls and have everything from porcelain to antique dolls of all kinds. I like to go to the Doll Market and walk around and shop. It is a huge store with every type of doll that you can imagine. It is on High Point Road right by the Merrit Drive intersection and they have a lot of parking, especially for handicapped. The prices are very good and they have the widest selection in town.

When we go bowling, I tent to like Gate City a little better than the rest of the bowling alleys in town. They are larger and less crowded and the smoke is not as thick as some of the others. The lanes seem to be a little longer though, and I never seem to bowl as well there. I guess you win some and lose some. The prices are about average and the people are pretty friendly. Bring your own shoes though, cause bowling alley shoes are a serious rip off.

Offers everything needed for the baseball/softball player to prepare; equipment sales(great prices), quality instruction, nice facility layout, they even have a strength and conditioning program, from what I was told by another parent, is the best in the state. Me and my two sons have been to the other facilities in Greensboro and Burlington and hands down GBC is the place to be.

Omega Sports has everything you need in a sporting goods store! If you play soccer, tennis, golf, or volleyball, there is a wide selection of goods to choose from. I am sure they carry other sporting goods, but I haven't been in the market for any others. They will let you try out tennis rackets before purchasing them, which is great. They also sell children's soccer cleats and shin guards.

It has been a little while since I have strolled into Tate Street Billiards. The last time was with my sister and some friends and we did not fit in. The pool was good, if a little smoky there. We were a little out of our league in that crowd, but no problems. It was a crowd of for real pool players that looked like they rode in on their Harleys.

The greensboro icehouse is a great place to take your family ice skating. They have events at night for young adults which can be fun as well as skate camps for younger children. Another interesting feature is a DJ and dance floor on weekend nights above the skating rink. A good time for teenagers.
