I wasn't sure that it was going to be that interesting, and I thought Savannah might be bored. I have been wrong before, and this was definitely something I was wrong about too.
Savannah was so interested in everything. I sometimes forget that she is almost 8, goes to school, and loves learning. They had tons of displays of different rocks, and Savannah had studied these same rocks at school recently. Of course, that made her a great tour guide for me, as she pointed out different rocks and even knew the names. Smarty pants! She also had a note pad that she drew the different rocks she loved, and colored them. {Not planned, and something I would recommend doing for your kids. She was a drawing machine!}
Kennecott Visitors Center is offering a coupon on their site for free admission to the mine in May. If you want a little adventure, I would highly recommend going. If you want to make a day of it, pack a lunch and head over to Copperton Park {our favorite} afterwards!
Disclosure: I was given a coupon to enter the Kennecott Visitors Center for free, but it was not mandatory that I post...I just wanted to spread the love.

I've always wanted to go. My grandpa use to work there.
Isn't it funny how many things are right in our backyard that we never see! I've never been either.
yeah, we've never been there either- but have driven almost right by it a few times ;).
Maybe now I will go- can I print out 7 of those coupons?
That looks fun! I went when I was real little but don't really remember it!
