Description

The Grand Rapids Children's Museum, in partnership with the Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts, is creating a brand-new, interactive exhibit for summer 2009! This exhibit will focus on farm-life, helping to bridge the gap between urban and rural by providing guests with meaningful learning experiences through play!


The West Michigan agricultural industry will come alive as children pick apples, feed animals, grow plants, gather eggs, and enjoy what it is like to live and work on a farm. This exhibit is designed to ensure that children have an opportunity to play as they learn and practice skills such as cooperation, problem solving, language, mathematics, movement, and more. While children are playing they are also developing self-esteem, curiosity, and independence;

all through PLAY!

So, join in the fun as we PLAY down(town) on the farm!
