    Fun for kids of all ages!

 

Puppets, trains, fire engines, books, bears, and more.

Many kids like to see how tall of a structure they can make with KEVA Planks There are bears! The kids like lifting and discussing the volcanic rocks. The train set is very popular! The 3-D map that lights up when buttons are pressed gives a lot of information about the area.Press the buttons and the trains move around the beautiful landscape of the model railroad. Feeding the fish at the fish hatchery on the same grounds as the museum is fun and interesting. Those fish are hungry!
