Our Connecticut adventures brought us to the Pez factory! We were lucky enough to visit during a weekday while the factory was in production. They are currently working on orders for Christmas and we watched them box up 12 packs.
The factory has a fun bingo game to play while looking at all the dispensers. The goal of the game is to find dispensers in a row from your game sheet and write down the year they were released.
We didn’t realize that Pez has been around since 1927! The fun toppers didn’t appear until 1955, and we loved wandering around and seeing the variety of dispensers.
Of course we bought some Pez for the car ride home, a visit wouldn’t be complete without a little sugar in our bodies. If you are along 95 in Connecticut, head over and enjoy a few hours of colorful Pez fun.
