点评:We visited on the opening day of the season in March 2025 with four adults and three children (12, 11, 9). Everyone had a great time, including the children. The museum has a diverse array of artifacts that highlight the rich history of Topsail Island, including Native American, pirate, and military history. The kids did a scavenger hunt and got a trinket for finishing. Outside they have a dig area where the kids think they found a shark tooth.
We walked away appreciating the wonderful tapestry of American history and also how the sands of time continue to reveal more to the locals that generously share their story.
Lastly, the friendly workers here really made the experience. We witnessed how every guest is personally greeted, and while this is a self-guided tour, the good folks who worked there lent their insights throughout our time there, making this a very special experience for our family. Just this month, we were in Washington DC exploring a handful of Smithsonian museums and had to say the friendly and passionate workers of this modest collection made this more educational and memorable than the larger museums.
翻译:我们在 2025 年 3 月的开幕日参观了博物馆,当时有四名成人和三名儿童(12、11、9 岁)。每个人都玩得很开心,包括孩子们。博物馆收藏了各种各样的文物,突出了托普塞尔岛丰富的历史,包括美洲原住民、海盗和军事历史。孩子们进行了寻宝游戏,并获得了一个小饰品作为结束。外面有一个挖掘区,孩子们认为他们在那里发现了鲨鱼牙齿。
我们离开时欣赏着美国历史的美妙画卷,也欣赏着时间之沙如何继续向慷慨分享他们的故事的当地人揭示更多的东西。
最后,这里友好的工作人员真的让我们有了一次难忘的体验。我们目睹了每位客人是如何受到亲自欢迎的,虽然这是一次自助游,但在那里工作的好心人在我们在那里的整个时间里都提供了他们的见解,这对我们一家人来说是一次非常特别的经历。就在这个月,我们在华盛顿特区参观了史密森尼博物馆,不得不说,这些小型博物馆友好而热情的工作人员使这里比大型博物馆更具有教育意义,也更令人难忘。
