Families with younger children will really enjoy a visit to the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame. Because it is separate from the main visitor's complex at Kennedy Space Center, it is often overlooked. But this air-conditioned mecca provides so much hands-on activity, youngsters of all ages will have a blast!
