A packed house on a Sunday afternoon at the Sandy Hook Arcade Center in Newtown. The arcade opened two weeks ago.

The arcade, open free to Newtown kids and their families, is the brainchild of two fathers who wanted to help after the Sandy Hook shootings.

"It’s a great, safe atmosphere -- a place a kid can be a kid again," said co-founder Andrew Clure. "A lot of these things you can’t simulate in the house."
