Certainly for those with young families, it is a great way to keep kids busy on a winter weekend day. For my family, we don't tend to go as much in the summer, but probably every second weekend my son asks to go to DC, and having a place to go that is indoors, educational, and yet fun for kids is such a critical thing. We almost tend to alternate between one weekend being a physical activity (skating/swimming) using infrastructure like Halifax Forum or Centennial Pool, with infrastructure like DC and the Library on the alternates. So important when you have a young family to help keep sanity by not being trapped indoors with a squirrelly child on a wet winter day! And was said above, when you compare to the cost of a movie or even just going to McDonalds, it is money well spent!
