Some of the best childhood memories start with a big imagination. A cardboard box becomes a castle. A fort becomes a hideout. A game becomes an adventure.

At Forts & Games Camp, campers will spend four days building, creating, collaborating, and bringing their ideas to life. Together, they'll construct forts and cardboard creations, invent new games, tackle challenges, and transform everyday materials into worlds of their own making.

June 15–18 | 9am–3pm
For children who have completed grades K–5

🫧 Yesterday we welcomed students from Fond du Lac for a field trip all about Bubble Science! We created giant bubbles, explored surface tension, and discovered some of the science behind bubbles through hands-on activities and plenty of play. Thank you to Fond du Lac for spending the day with us!

Over the past year, we’ve been wondering where all the Little Farmer’s Market money disappears to. We checked the obvious spots, the not-so-obvious spots, and basically every nook and cranny we could think of… with no luck.

Turns out our market stand has some incredible money-hiding skills. πŸ˜‚ Thanks to one determined guest, we uncovered 64 missing bills hidden deep inside the exhibit and officially solved the mystery.

Our Little Farmer’s Market is one of the many ways kids explore imaginative play, practice social skills, and learn about shopping, food, and community through hands-on experiences. Come stock the shelves, harvest veggies, run the stand, and maybe even help us solve the next museum mystery.
