Kid Tips

Babies: With all the noise, music, video, and displays, babies will have lots to ogle. Family restrooms are available.

Toddlers & Pre-K: The seats in the back of the 4-D movie don't move like the other ones, but the film (and accompanying screams from the audience) are a thrill older kids will prefer.

School-Age Kids: Best for kids who like Coke and are interested in history. There's a lot of noise and multimedia in this museum, which may get a little intense for more sensitive souls. The tasting room (with beverages from Africa, Latin America, Asia, and everywhere Coke products are sold) is a guaranteed hit.

Pre-Teens & Teens: The intense 4-D movie, which includes a dragonfly bite (ouch), a snowboarding ferret, and a lot of misting, will thrill teens. They'll also like the Pop Culture area, which includes a couch from season 4 of "American Idol."

Planning Notes

• Buy tickets online. They're cheaper and you'll avoid waiting in line.
• Combine with a visit to the Georgia Aquarium. Since they're side by side, consider going to one in the morning, having a picnic, and visiting the other in the afternoon.
• Don't bring a double stroller. Single strollers are fine but this popular destination gets c-r-o-w-d-e-d and there are lots of stairs to climb and doors to walk through. If you've got two kids that need carrying put the second one in a backpack.
• Try to avoid the crowds. Go on a weekday first thing in the morning or after 2 p.m. Noon to 2 p.m. is the busiest time of the day.
