This is a great place for young and old to spend as much or as little time desired. Plenty to see for everyone with benches to rest along the trail and a raptor presentation to educate visitors. My family enjoys it so much we returned several times while visiting in the area. Chicago Generations (6 yrs to 75 yrs)

I had a 11,8, and 6 yr old. I thought it was pricey for a self guided tour but understand the fee was to help support the care of the injured birds. There is also a civil war museum and fort nearby that was interesting at $7 fee each person. The kids were entertained and the raptor center took us 45 minutes to complete.
