Whether you’re 8 or 80, there’s something utterly delightful about occasionally escaping into a fairytale land. While we might not have access to a real-life storybook destination, there’s one whimsical garden here in the Great Lakes State that will fill you with childlike glee and excitement.

The Michigan 4-H Children’s Garden is located at 1066 Bogue St in East Lansing.
