Atlanta with kids

[iKnackered]

I'm taking my 10 and 5yr old to Atlanta soon, do you have any recommendations of activities to do with them...any hidden gems of places to go? Oh, and any ice-cream parlours as my 5yr old is desperate to visit an ice cream selling shop!
Many thanks.

We're planning a short trip there, so have been looking into this very subject.
The Aquarium there is supposed to be fab.
World of Coke is reportedly interesting/fun
Stone Mountain - just outside Atlanta and worth a trip, I'm told
You can tour the CNN Television Studios, but that might not be suitable for your younger child
Zoo - imagine it is worth a visit

That is as far as I've gotten with my research.......

Stone Mountain is great fun. Wacky railroad trip - straight from Little House on the Prairie times!

Coke museum is quite interesting.

Atlanta Zoo is fabulous - and I don't usually like zoos.

There's a Six Flags, but it was closed when we went. (bit disappointing as that was one of the reasons we went to Atlanta! It's only open weekends out of season)

There's a kids museum but we didn't make it there.

There's an old fashioned pedestrianised part which is downtown but I can't remember what it's called or where it is. It had ice cream parlours and American diner type places.

Think I'd give Six Flags a miss - friends teen children described it as 'sketchy'.

Excellent, thank you!
