A.C. Gilbert's Discovery Village, Salem

Tons of fun for kids from 3 to 14. one of the coolest play structures ever. If you don't feel like chasing them around there are lots of places to sit in the sun or shade and watch them.

MY CHILDREN THAT AGES 12 AND 10 STILLLOVE COMING HERE AND HAVING A GREAT TIME! I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO PEOPLE WITH CHILDREN, ITS A REASONABLE PRICE FOR A NICE FAMILY OUTTING

My mother gave us a family membership as a Christmas present and it has been wonderful so far. It's hard to work off the energy of a three year-old during the rainy winter months and the Gilbert Museum is a perfect option. There are exhibits set up inside three different historical houses and they offer a wide variety of fun activities. From the giant crawl-through head and stomach to the room where you can star in a video game, you can spend hours just wandering about. My daughter loved the stage that is set up to look like a castle, complete with dress up costumes for all the knights and princesses.

Fun & imaginative! Kids and adults of all ages will find something new to explore. We'll go back again & again! It's a treasure for Salem to have in our community!

This place is a great place for kids to go. The price is reasonable, and definitely worth all the fun the kids have. There are many different exhibits for the kids to check out, and they are all so fun the children don't even realize they are learning things, such as how erosion works, or what magnets do. There is also a huge playground, which is fenced in for the childrens safety. I can easily see a family spending half a day here. There is a consession stand type area where you can buy a very reasonably priced lunch or snacks, and the employees are very friendly as well. This is defintely one of the best places for familys to visit in Salem.

My Baby sister comes to visit me from colorado every few years. Everytime she comes out, she has to go to the gilbert house. You guys are great
