We were 3 adults and we found it just as fun as the kids did! We had to register online before we came but we didn't know that. Not a problem. The gentleman out front helped us do that via our phones. Kudos to that guy because he was trying to get everyone registered and he was also trying to keep people from sneaking in the side door (either intentionally or unintentionally, I don't know) . He had his hands full but he kept smiling all the way through it.
When you register you have the option to pay extra for a sundae or a milkshake. My friend did this and couldn't finish it by the end because you get free ice cream throughout the place. So, either get your milkshake/sundae in the lobby before heading into all the rooms or save yourself the extra money and don't buy the extra.
Not your traditional museum by any means.... it was way better! Much more fun! Some people say in their reviews that there was nothing to learn here but that is not true. They must have skipped over the section where you lift the flaps on the wall and it gives you history and trivia facts about ice cream.
As soon as you enter the door you get to take a small ice cream treat from the freezer. After that you get ice cream scoops at the end of every section. By the time I got to the last section I couldn't even eat anymore ice cream because I had too much already, (I am sure this wouldn't be the case for most children. They tend to have a bottomless stomach when it comes to ice cream, don't they!)
There is a giant slide that goes from the top floor to the rooms at the bottom. Or you can take the elevator if you prefer.
Go into this with the attitude of fun and young at heart and you will enjoy it. Go into it with the attitude that this is all serious and majorly educational then you will not enjoy it. We had no kids with us and we had a blast! It was like going through the fun house at a carnival. Oh, and if you don't like pink then this is not the place for you. So much pink!
The one thing I think they are missing (besides needing an extra guy to man the front door) is to have someone in the lobby (or signs) to tell people where to start. Best course of direction is to head to the hall to the left of the giant slide and begin there. Many people were milling about the lobby not sure at first where to go from there. Once you figure it out, it's all amusement and fun from there!
