Winter Nature Nights

Visit the Virginia Living Museum from December 19th to December 22nd and you'll be able to catch the Winter Nature Nights from 5:30-8:15. Tickets are $14 for ages 3 and up, and includes strolling through the decorated museum and lights outside on the boardwalk trail. You'll want to see the story walk for the book "How Do Dinosaurs Say Merry Christmas", while you check out the decorated dinos. 
Meet Santa, play winter games, listen to live music, decorate and eat cookies, and drink hot chocolate, for no additional charge. A highlight for my kids was the scavenger hunt throughout the museum. 
For an additional price you can purchase tickets to a holiday planetarium show, Star of Wonder or Laser Holiday.
