Museums (like education!) are wasted on the young, in my experience. When young, a museum was just a lot of unconnected items; that is, I just didn't know enough about the world and the history of it for anything in the museum to connect to anything I already knew. None of it meant anything to me and being there was thus dull.

Now, almost any museum is interesting; the displays and exhibits will connect to things I already know about, places I have been, history I have already learned, cultures I've experienced, and something in my accumulated wisdom will make a new connection and fit better.

Eventually it reaches the point where things that should sound like parodies, like a museum of drainage, becomes genuinely interesting.
