Launch Zone at National Harbor

[RareBreed]

Since school is out tomorrow, I was looking for something new to do with my two boys. I have wanted to visit the National Harbor and came across a place called the Launch Zone. There's not a lot of information on it but says it's a preview to the National Children's Musuem that's opening in 2013. I can't tell from what I've found if it's an interesting place for a 8 and 11 year old. Has anyone gone there before and would my boys enjoy it?

It is very small. I would not go there just for that unless you have something else planned. We went because I had a doctors appt next door and my kids were probably interested for 30 minutes maybe.
It is a cute idea but not worth the hour trip there IMO. So unless you wanted to make it a day with the Peeps store and lunch there is not much to it.

Thanks. Looking at what limited info I found, it sounds like it's for small kids.
