Have you been to the Crossroads
Village? There is countless number of fun activities there to see.
Parents and children will see several exhibits and much more.
The Crossroads Village is located at
6140 Bray Road, Flint, Michigan. This is one of the many tourists
attractions.
1. Barber Shop
One of the greatest attractions that I
liked was the Barbershop which dates back in time. The attendant
that was telling the story about this barbershop pointed out some
important points. There was a time that women were not allowed in the
barbershops, because men would come in there and take baths as well as
get their hair cut. In there you would see the tub sitting out in
the open and a stove in the near center of the room. For those that
love to play checkers, there is a checker set on the table. So you
can have a game going while waiting to get your hair cut.

2. T.N.North & Son Bank
As you enter this bank you will see a
se of U.S. 19th Century coins. Whereas the banks now have
some glass teller windows, the teller windows then had a set
of bars in the front of them similar to the bars on a jail cell.
3. Black Smith Shop
You definitely do not want to miss the
Black Smith Shop. Here you will see the blacksmith making mini-horse
shoes that they actually sell for $3.00 a piece.
4. Stanley School
This school is named Stanley School and
apparently there were various age groups in one school room. Just
imagine, one building for Kindergarteners through 12th
grade.
5. Llamas
6. Ferris Wheel
Children love the Ferris Wheel, a
Carousel Merry-go-round, and a Village train as well. These are just
some of the great things that you will see at the Cross Road Village.
There is never a dull moment there.
