These informative adventures meet in the Children's Gallery and follow a monthly theme that combines indoor and outdoor activities at the museum, crafts, games, and much more. Afterwards, feel free to explore the museum with your child.

Interpretive programming has been funded through the generosity of the Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelley Foundation. Learn about how Illinois animals find habitats and what makes a good residence. We'll learn how to do our part by preventing pollution, caring for animals and plants and learning how to recycle. This month we'll learn what seeds need to grow and how they form young plants. We'll grow some plants ourselves, investigate seeds of all sizes and even taste some seeds.
