Kidspace Arroyo Adventure Opening This Weekend

April 28, 2016

If you've been to Kidspace Children's Museum lately - like maybe to adopt some caterpillars like we did last week - you've seen that the whole Arroyo Seco section in the back has been blocked off. This is because they have been building something amazing. My boys favorite spot at Kidspace was the now non-existant roots so I have been promising them great things are coming and they won't be disappointed.IMG_0109
The new Arroyo Adventure at Kidspace Children's Museum will open to the public on Saturday, April 30! Arroyo Adventure will feature 8 brand-new experiences that encourage children to connect with nature, engage in adventures, and uncover possibilities between water and rocks, mud and sticks, and trees and native plantings.

Visitors will be able to climb their way up to the giant Hawk's Nest where they can let their imaginations soar as they look out over the trees. Children can explore the properties of mud and try their hand at brickmaking in the Mud & Clay outdoor studio. The Flood & Erosion Plain is an opportunity for children to investigate the effects of erosion on their physical environment by making channels through sand, building small dams, and using rocks and sticks to control the flow of water. Other exhibits will include fun activities such as the ability to build forts, explore plant life, create unique art pieces, and much more!

It looks amazing and we can't wait to check it out for ourselves!
