Discovery Place KIDS will open in Fall 2010.

Ask just about any child ages 2-8 if you can help them do something and the usual response is “I can do it, let me do it!” As a child centered children’s museum, we decided our exhibit focus would be an I CAN theme. You and your child (ren) will have the opportunity to explore and play in the following exhibit areas.

-I CAN Create—create your own masterpiece as you visit the visual arts studio. Display your creative flair on the Town Hall Theater stage and in the Puppet Theater.
-I CAN be Healthy—discover how to be healthy by role-playing in a grocery store, a doctor’s office, a fitness center, a restaurant and by visiting a farm.
-I CAN Work—imagine what it would be like to be a firefighter, policeman, veterinarian or other community helper.
-I CAN Move—experiment with movement in the air, on the land and in the water. Navigate a lake and drive a race car as you get moving.
-I CAN Explore Underwater—pretend you are exploring an underwater world as you captain a ship and drive a submarine.
-I CAN Build—become part of a construction crew as you move bricks in the brick factory using cranes and pulleys and then design and construct your own building.
-I CAN Grow—experience a park like setting that is designed to stimulate the brains of crawling babies to children age 3. Key features include a playhouse, tummy time area, beginning walker’s obstacle course and water play.

Check the blog over the next several weeks as we explore each of the I Can theme areas in detail.
