Explore the Exhibits:
Lil’ Sprout’s Market
Grocery shopping has never been this fun! At the Lil’ Sprouts Market, kids can push mini carts, shop for produce, and even decorate a cake in the bakery. Whether they’re scanning items or stocking the shelves, children can experience both sides of the grocery store while practicing key skills.
Grandma J’s Farm
Come on down to Grandma J’s Farm! Little ones can harvest crops, milk Bella the cow, and collect eggs from the Chicken Coop. This exhibit is the perfect way for kids to learn about agriculture as they sing “Old McDonald” and get their hands dirty working on the farm!
Up, Up, and Away
Fun takes flight at the Up, Up, and Away exhibit. Kids can launch scarves, balls, and pom poms into the air at high speeds through a tube system. In the Flight Lab, they can build and test parachutes, as they explore the science behind flight. Who knew aerodynamics could be so exciting?
