A Fun and Educational Experience
Jim Bowman, a 5-star reviewer, shared a delightful experience with his second-grade granddaughter at the architectural display. Engagement and Curiosity sparked in his young companion as she explored the building model and floor plans on display. Her curiosity was piqued, and she had many questions about architects and their roles. Jim encourages the display to include more exhibits, praising the "neat stuff" on show.
A Side Note: A Compliment on the Door Color
On a separate note, Jim mentions that his wife is a fan of the door color, a small but pleasant aside that adds to the overall positive tone of the review.
