Love a good puzzle challenge with the family? The Escape Game at Concord Mills recently opened with 5 escape room challenges for your friends and family to conquer. All five rooms differ with regard to difficulty and the number of players able to play together, so groups big and small, and beginner or more seasoned escape room players, will all find a game that’s right for their group.
The Escape Game: Concord invited us out to try a game so we could share the experience with our readers.
Three of my kids, aged 10-13, and I got to play the Playground Escape Game and we had a blast! It was a very cooperative game and really required us to divide and conquer and help each other to solve all the puzzles in time.
The game was full of surprises and we won’t share all the details, so you can enjoy the game yourself. But here’s how our experience went.
The Escape Game at Concord Mills
The Escape Game is located between the movie theater and Dave & Busters at Concord Mills. If you head towards the movie theater parking lot and then keep going around towards Dave and Busters, you’ll see The Escape Game, painted black and white, on the exterior of the mall. You won’t need to walk through the mall to get to The Escape Game, but there’s an entrance in the mall, too!
When you arrive you’ll check in with your name, if you’ve made reservations in advance. This is recommended, by the way. Then, if you haven’t filled out a waiver, there’s a quick form to fill out on a tablet kiosk. Then, you’re ready to go.
Your guide will walk you to your game and welcome you to the space. A movie intro will play on the screen above the door and you’re off.
The Playground
Our game, Playground, set us up as 4th-grade students on the very last day of 4th grade. But our teacher wouldn’t let us out until we had completed all the tasks on the report card. Each lit up as we completed them during the game, helping us keep track of where we were and how many more puzzles were yet to be solved.
Up to 12 players can play this game, so I was a little nervous about how the 4 of us would do. We’re not exactly expert escape room players. But our game guide helped us out from time to time with clues on the video screen and little tips to let us know if we were headed in the right direction or not. Which, was super helpful and helped keep the game enjoyable and not frustrating.
The Puzzles at The Escape Game
The puzzles we had to solve were all themed by school subject, fitting with the 4th-grade classroom experience. The way information was displayed and hidden for each problem varied greatly. Some clues had us bouncing between rooms as they were opened and some of it was hidden in plain sight and required some deduction and logic, and maybe a little math to find the solutions. Each problem worked together to get us the information we needed to escape that fourth-grade class.
There were lots of fun little surprises along the way, that I, at least, have never seen in an escape room before. My kids really enjoyed those surprises.
Mom Review: The Escape Game: Concord, NC
We had a great time playing Playground. Escape rooms are a great family activity for families, especially with hard-to-please tweens and teens and I would definitely would recommend playing a game at The Escape Game. Our game was really well done and we enjoyed working together to solve it and escape.
In my opinion, I don’t think kids much younger than 8 or 9 would be able to contribute much towards solving the puzzles and they might get bored. Although one nice thing about Playground is that there are a significant number of tasks that require collecting objects and younger kids could certainly help with that. But, suffice it to say, these are really geared toward older kids and adults.
Prison Break: 60 minutes to escape prison. Difficulty 9/10, for up to 8 players
The Depths: A secret underwater lab? Difficulty 7/10, for up to 8 players
Special Ops: A mysterious market…. Difficulty 8/10, for up to 8 players
Gold Rush: Time to find some gold. Difficulty 7/10, for up to 8 players
Playground: Escape the 4th grade, can’t be that hard, right? Difficulty 6/10 for up to 12 players

Tickets for The Escape Game
Tickets are $36.99. Smaller groups may end up together, so if you’d like to book privately, for only your group, you can purchase the entire room beginning at $280. Of course, the other option is just to make sure you bring enough friends to fill the room.
More to Do: Concord Mills
Being located in Concord Mills, a large mall, you could easily turn your visit into a full day. Concord Mills has an aquarium, an arcade, movie theater, lots of shopping, and places to eat.
Our family went to the Lego Store and then decided to drive over to SunFlour Baking Company for lunch, which is a family favorite just about 15 minutes from the mall.
Have you heard about Reed Gold Mine in Midland, NC? The very first gold ever discovered in the United States was at Little Meadow Creek, and what would soon become the Reed Gold Mine. Visit Little Meadow Creek, tour the underground gold mine, and try your hand at panning for gold. Reed Gold Mine State Historic Site is an amazing place to visit. Admission is totally free. Here’s everything you need to know to plan your own visit to Reed Gold Mine.
Watch! Come along on our visit to Reed Gold Mine
We learned to pan for gold and ventured unground into the mine!
History of Reed Gold Mine
Where was the first gold in the United States discovered? Right in Cabarrus County, NC at Little Meadow Creek. Really! In 1799, 12-year-old Conrad Reed skipped church to go fishing at Little Meadow Creek where he found a 17-pound gold nugget.
He brought it home to his father but no one realized it was gold for another 3 years when Conrad’s father, John Reed brought the nugget to Fayetteville and sold it to a jeweler for just $3.50, a single week’s wages for the farmer, even though it was actually worth $3,600.
Shortly after this John Reed partnered with some of his neighbors and started mining operations at the creek and surrounding area.
The whole thing sparked this country’s first gold rush. Who knew!? I love discovering new things with my kids.
Seriously cool history happened at Reed Gold Mine and you can see it for yourself!

Things to See When You Visit Reed Gold Mine
When you first arrive at Reed Gold Mine you’ll pull into the gravel drive and park in the large lot. Then, head to the Visitor’s Center building. Here you’ll be able to grab a free map for a self-guided tour of the mine, both above and underground. If you are interested in panning for gold, this is also where you can purchase tickets for gold panning.
Panning for Gold
If you’d like to try your hand at panning for gold, purchase your tickets at the Visitor’s Center upon arrival. Tickets are $5 per pan of dirt. We were told about 1 in 7 pans actually contains gold. But, each of my 4 kids panned and 3 of them had gold in their pans!
Just take your tickets down the gravel path the short distance to the panning area. There you’ll be given a pan of dirt from Little Meadow Creek. While you won’t find any 17-pound chunks of gold like Conrad Reed, there is still gold to be found and a lot to learn.
The gentlemen who helped us with the panning were a wealth of knowledge about panning for gold and the mine. For example, did you know the phrase “get down to the nitty-gritty” comes from gold mining? The “nitty-gritty” is the pile of rocks and gravel, and maybe gold, left after the dirt is washed away. The gold is denser than the dirt, so even small flakes stay with the “nitty-gritty” as the dirt is swirled and rinsed out of the pan. That makes the nitty-gritty the important part in your pan, hence the saying “get down to the nitty-gritty.”
If you do find gold in your pan, the gentlemen at the panning area will put it into a small vile for you to bring home!
The Reed Gold Mine Tour
Pick up a FREE self-guided tour brochure at the Visitor’s Center. It has an easy-to-follow map of the underground and surface mining areas of Reed Gold Mine, with numbered stations. Just read the short text at each stop and you’ll be learning a lot of gold mining history.
On your tour, you will actually be able to go 50 feet underground into the mine. There you’ll see quartz veins that were followed in search of gold as well as old mining equipment. You’ll also learn about how mining was done in Reed Gold Mine and North Carolina. The self-guided tour page will be extremely helpful as there is nearly no explanatory signage within the mine beyond labels that match the tour sheet.
Things to Remember in the Mine
A note for parents: This is NOT a place to let kids run on ahead. There are old sections of the mind blocked off with boards such that you can see into the old tunnels, but small kids could squeeze through. Stay together.
Worried about being underground? I am not a fan of small spaces so, I was a little worried about going underground. But, really, it was so cool, I didn’t care. The mine is well lit, the paths are gravel and clearly marked, and you don’t need to be underground for a really long time to see everything. That said, I was glad to see the sun again, and it did make me think about the people who spent many hours underground mining quartz veins for gold right in that very spot.
When we are in the area again, I’m definitely going back.
Continue the Reed Gold Mine Tour Above Ground
The tour continues on the surface with a trail that takes you past the surface equipment at the top of the mine shaft, through the area where the small mine town of Brunerville stood, and past mill stones and a stamp mill showing how mining in methods at this site changed over time.
The Visitor’s Center
Inside the Visitor’s Center, you’ll find a small but informative museum on gold, mining at Reed and in the area, as well as other types of mining. It’s not a hands-on type of museum but it’s very informative and interesting to see examples of the equipment used for this work over time. The museum is also free to explore.
A small gift shop is located at the entrance to the Visitor’s Center and restrooms are located just outside the museum and Visitor’s Center.
What we loved about Reed Gold Mine & Things to Know
The grounds and the mine are very well maintained. And, the self-guided tour is extremely informative and interesting. This site would be excellent both as a family adventure or a group field trip.
Gold panning is amazing. Even if you don’t find gold, you’ll learn so much science and history about gold mining!
Allow about 2 hours to visit everything, more if you really want to take your time.
There is a picnic area on site. No food is available for purchase, so do plan to bring your picnic or snacks to enjoy.
Admission is free. We LOVE free things to do, especially educational free things to do. Even if you choose to pay for panning, it’s a very inexpensive place to visit.
Reed Gold Mine Hours: Tuesday through Saturday 9 am to 5 pm Panning is available from March through November, weather permitting.
Are you looking for a great place for breakfast or lunch in Cabarrus County? If you’ve never visited Sunflour Baking Company you are missing out. The flakiest most delicious breakfast pastries, sandwiches, cookies, and cupcakes are waiting for you at one of Sunflour’s five locations near Charlotte, NC and we think you’ll want to pop in and enjoy their delicious offerings.
Amazing coffee, a variety of indoor and outdoor seating, with scratch-made baked goods using local ingredients makes Sunflour Baking Company the perfect place for a relaxing family breakfast, lunch, brunch, or even just a snack.
Breakfast at Sunflour
Sunflour has hands down the most delicious pastries we’ve ever had. And, that’s really saying something because I have a sweet tooth that’s probably a little too big. My vanilla sweet roll was somehow light and flaky and soft at the same time with just the right amount of sweetness.
Even my husband who isn’t big into sweets raved about the cinnamon rolls and the kids loved their selections, too. We also enjoyed breakfast sandwiches on homemade bread that was so good we knew had to head back to this place to try their lunch options. Which, we did.
Lunch
I didn’t get any photos of lunch. I’m sorry but I was too excited to bite into that bread again. We enjoyed BLTs and turkey avocado sandwiches for lunch. But you’ll also find a variety of paninis and other sandwiches on the menu, plus soups.
Pastries and More at Sunflour
You’ll find kid favorites like cream-filled sprinkled cookies and cupcakes, as well as all sorts of muffins, rolls, and sweet and savory pastries at Sunflour. Everything is fresh and made from scratch. We really had trouble picking just one item and opted to split a few things to try a variety. It was a good way to go and highly recommended.
Sunflour Baking Company: Review
Since our initial visit to Sunflour Baking Company, we’ve returned whenever we’re in the area. We love the pastries and sandwiches and the friendly atmosphere.
My husband loves to get his breakfast sandwiches on Sunflour’s delicious cheddar biscuit. I love the Vanilla sugar roll- so light and flaky. The kids really enjoy the cinnamon rolls. Sunflour is a place where we’ve found great food and a good cup of coffee again and again.
Inside: A parent review of all the fun things to do at Village Park, Kannapolis, NC.
Have you visited Village Park in Kannapolis, NC?
Not only does this park have two amazing playgrounds and multiple picnic shelters, but you’ll also find North Carolina’s only double-decker carousel lit with 1800 lights!
As if that weren’t enough, the park also has a real miniature train that families can ride around the park. Tickets for the carousel and train are very inexpensive.
Topping all that off is a free holiday light display and seasonal events. We loved our visit to Village Park in Kannapolis and we have all the information for you!
Village Park Carousel
Manufactured in Italy, this carousel is the only double-decker carousel in North Carolina. It features over 1,800 lights, hand-painted murals, and traditional carousel music. The classic carousel is set beside a green space as you enter the park in its own covered shelter, making this park feel whimsical and inviting.
Tickets to ride the carousel at Village Park are $1.50 per person/per ride. Kids 12 months and under are free.
Think your kids are too big? Think again. Even my preteens enjoyed a whirl on this carousel.
Village Park Train Ride
The train shed at Village Park is located across from the carousel. From there, families can hop on board to ride the Rotary Express train around the park, past the splash pad, both playgrounds and across the paved and shaded walking paths. The train is a g-24 scale replica CP Huntington engine.
Tickets to ride the rail at Village Park are $1.50 per person. The train hours are seasonal as follows:
Weekends only from April 5th, 2025 to Memorial Day: Saturdays 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m and Sundays noon to 6:00 p.m.

The train will be open on Labor Day (September 1st, 2025) from noon to 6:00 p.m.
Purchase tickets for both the train and the carousel at the exterior window of the main building at the park’s entrance.
City of Kannapolis, Village Park Playgrounds
Climb high, bounce, swing, and slide at both of Village Park’s playgrounds. Located side by side, one playground is intended for the 5 and under crowd, while the other is meant for older kids. We loved the climbing options and long slides at this park!
Paved Walking Trails
Taking a walk or a run? The paved walking trails at Village Park and connected to other trails in the area could be just the right place for you. You can take the 2-mile loop between Village Park and Bakers Creek Park on the 8th Street Greenway and the Bakers Creek Greenway.
Free and Cheap Holiday Fun at Village Park in Kannapolis
We love FREE and low-cost holiday fun, and Village Park is packed with it. They have a totally free holiday light display with thousands of lights! Walk through the displays at your own pace for a magical holiday experience. Check out the FREE Holiday Lights at Village Park.
Or, if you want to turn it up a notch, book tickets for the park’s holiday train, the Winterland Express! Tickets are $2 per person. Ride the train through the park’s lights and see them in a whole new way. End your evening with a ride on the two-story carousel for just $2 per person.
Tree Lighting Celebration for the Holiday Season
The Kannapolis tree lighting at Village Park is one of the park’s most exciting events of the year! Thousands gather throughout the park on Saturday evening before Thanksgiving to see the park illuminated by 250,000 lights strung through trees, along buildings, and adorning the Christmas tree in the green space of the park. To kick off the Celebration of Lights, there is an annual Tree Lighting Ceremony.
The Tree Lighting Ceremony
When the ceremony begins, various speakers say a little about the past year and the year that is to come. Then, the crowd is introduced to Santa Claus himself! As he counts down with the crowd, the large Christmas tree illuminates as the crowd hits 1, along with dozens of LED Christmas trees that surround the tree. This creates a gorgeous display of color, and the crowd begins to move and weave through the trees, now bright with the Christmas spirit!
Where to Gather Your Family for the Tree Lighting Ceremony
You can sit pretty much anywhere in the circumference of the tree to get a good view. If you plan to ride the carousel, train, or visit Santa right after the lighting, I would recommend standing toward the back closer to the lines for those activities. The lines grow long quickly, so anything you can do to get you closer to the front of the line, the better. The train lines seem to be the longest of the three attractions, so if that is on your holiday bucket list, stay close to that line during the tree lighting ceremony.
You can also choose to stand closer to the main stage area to hear the wonderful messages from community leaders. Here, your kids will get an up-close view of Santa as he greets the park! There are also a few carols sung, and you are best able to hear and enjoy the thrill of the countdown here (it’s a little hard to hear once you get closer to the tree).
Fireworks
My family’s favorite part of the tree lighting ceremony was hands down the fireworks that immediately preceded the lights. The fireworks rose into the sky behind and to the left of the main stage, so we were able to position ourselves so that the fireworks rose into the sky right above the Christmas tree.
The fireworks display lasted around 5 minutes and was a great way to start the celebration and helped stabilize the crowd movement for a few minutes. If you have little ones, be sure to bring ear protection (our two-year-old didn’t find the fireworks as thrilling as the rest of us).
Celebration of Lights
This free holiday light display in Village Park is daily from November 16th through December 30th, 2025. Hours are Sunday through Thursday 6 pm to 10 pm and Friday and Saturday 6 pm to 10 pm. The display will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day.
In addition to the lights, Santa will be on-site to visit with the kids every evening! Plus enjoy live holiday music, entertainment, crafts, and a miniature train display.

Reed Gold Mine
Learn about the first gold ever discovered in the United States. It was right in Cabarrus County in 1799. Today you can visit the site, explore the mine that operated here and learn about gold mining history. You can also try panning for gold from the same creek where that first gold was discovered! We loved our visit to Reed Gold Mine.
This lodge includes a full indoor waterpark (and outdoor pool for the warmer seasons), daily programming, multiple dining options, and other attractions.
One of the benefits that I loved about our room was that the couch was a pull-out bed in a separate sitting area giving us extra room to spread out at night. You can also reserve special rooms that have bunk beds for the kids.
Day Passes at Great Wolf Lodge
Great Wolf Lodge offers day passes for families that want to visit for a day. However, lodging is typically a better deal, especially if you look for reduced rates via the Great Wolf Lodge emails or online deals sites such as Groupon.
Waterpark at Great Wolf Lodge
The waterpark is extensive and includes multiple waterslides, a small children’s wading area, a children’s water playground, a wave pool, and more. Waterpark admission is included in your stay.
Magiquest (or Compass Quest & Shadow Quest)
We also purchased a Magiquest game for our children. To play Magiquest, you must purchase a wand and game activation. Once your wand is activated, you can use it to complete quests and adventures around the lodge. The game is quite a bit of fun for kids and is really active.
Other Things to Do at Great Wolf Lodge
In addition to the waterpark and Magiquest, the lodge has daily programming including a bedtime story each night, dance party, laser tag, a ropes course, mini-golf, and much more. The attractions other than the daily programming and waterpark are all offered for additional fees. You can purchase special bundle passes to save money.
Even if you are just passing through the area, Concord Mills is a fun place to visit in Concord. This massive mall has 200 stores, a dining pavilion with 14 restaurants, and attractions such as SEA LIFE (see below), a movie theatre, Dave & Busters, and The Speedpark (see below).
Stores that children might enjoy in particular at Concord Mill are The Disney Store, the Lionel Retail Store (see below), the LEGO store, and Bass Pro Shop.
SEA LIFE Aquarium is adjacent to Concord Mills and offers 10 interactive zones to explore.
While this aquarium is smaller than some of the other aquariums in the area, it still offers plenty to explore. Plan on 45 minutes to an hour for your visit. At the end, there is a play space (and fortunately plenty of parent seating) where smaller kids can get some energy out.
Be sure to purchase your tickets ahead of time online starting at $25.99 depending on the day you plan to go. Purchasing online will secure your entry spot in case they are crowded.
The aquarium has a passport for the kids where they can get a stamp at each station. If they get all the stamps, they get a small prize from the gift shop. My kids really loved looking for the passport stations.
Kidding Around age recommendation: All ages. This aquarium might be a particularly good choice for smaller children as the length is manageable.
The Speedpark is located directly outside the Concord Mills mall. You can purchase an unlimited wristband that will allow you unlimited activities for the entire day. Unlike many wristbands too, this one actually includes all the activities from the bungee jumping to the multiple go-kart tracks.
The Speedpark offers:
4 Go-Karting Tracks (including a 2-seater track and junior track)
18-Hole Mini-Golf
110 Ft. Fun Slide (you slide down on a burlap sack)
The Lionel Retail Store is the perfect addition to the Concord Mills Mall for train enthusiasts, and it’s more than just a store as it has several model train displays. In the store, collectors will find both model trains and NASCAR collectibles.
Test your family’s puzzle-solving skills at The Escape Game at Concord Mills. With 5 rooms to pick from, your family is sure to find an escape room challenge they’d like to take on.
Our family with one adult, and 3 kids ages 10-13, played “Playground” and had a blast.
This ice cream/coffee shop located near Concord Mills doesn’t only just sell fresh cups of coffee but also a premium ice cream brand. For families with children, the coffee shop also has a small play area with toys and books.
At iFLY you can fly (like really fly) in a wind tunnel.
iFLY is an indoor skydiving simulator where you enter a wind tunnel that is strong enough to allow you to float on the air. In fact, experienced flyers can even perform tricks such as flips.
This free museum includes race cars and other memorabilia that celebrate the history of Hendrick Motorsports. Our children in particular enjoyed watching a display that showed how the body of the car could be lifted on and off. It’s a small museum, but it’s free and allows you to see a number of race cars up close.
The K1 Speed Indoor Karting in Concord has a super track which is the longest track of any K1 Speed location. This location offers electric go-karting which means that the go-karts can be turned on and off quickly by the staff making it a safer place to kart.
We were impressed by how fast the go-karts could drive and the attention to safety by the staff. Everyone wears helmets and there was a full safety presentation by the staff before karting began. Driving rules were enforced on the track and feedback was offered to help drivers not run into each other or the track.
One fun unique feature was that rather than the drivers racing each other to the finish, they raced by time. Each driver was given a printout of their lap times and driving times after they drove so that they could see their scores.
Both adult and junior racekarts are available, though junior racing is not open at all times.
