A vibrant educational playground designed to inspire young minds through interactive exhibits, hands-on learning, and imaginative play.

Tips from the community

Designed for children, this museum tells a story about the historic town and the Mississippi river through themed activities. The museum itself covers 8.5 acres! So there’s plenty for your kids to do. The Play With Me area is for toddlers under the age of 4, with activities designed to ignite the senses. The Follow That Food exhibit is also a super cool way for your kids to learn about where the food is coming from, from farm to the family table. You can also have a meal at Acorn Cafe which has tons of delicious menu choices for kids.
