The Lincoln Children's Museum is thrilled to announce the opening of its highly anticipated permanent exhibit, Here We Grow!
Designed with a focus on interactive play, the exhibit boasts a variety of activities that allow children to explore the world of farming and agriculture in a way that is both entertaining and educational.
One of the standout features of the exhibit is the water table. Visitors can learn about the important role of water in agriculture as they explore irrigation, manipulate the pivot, control water run-off, and more. Guests can also role-play different careers in agriculture, care for a life-sized steer and pig, gather eggs from the chicken coop, and even "drive" a combine. Each component of the exhibit is designed to promote fine and gross motor skills and instill an understanding and respect for the people, animals and machinery that are essential to agriculture.
Plans have already been laid for future additions to the Here We Grow exhibit, featuring a three-story Luckey climbing play structure – the first of its kind in Nebraska. For more information about the Lincoln Children's Museum and the Here We Grow exhibit, please visit lincolnchildrensmuseum.org.
The Lincoln Children's Museum is open Wednesday through Saturday fro 9am – 5pm and Sunday from 11am – 5pm. Visit today!
