Little Wonders: Museum Fun for Preschoolers

Learn and play from home—museum style! Preschoolers and their adults can join us online for our popular Little Wonders program, featuring stories, hands-on activities, and more. This month, we're exploring tall trees, mini mushrooms, feathery ferns and other plants that call the forest home! Head to Little Wonders Online beginning Friday, May 21 and join the fun! We'll also enjoy a live, virtual story time that morning at 10:30. Preregistration (https://mnch.uoregon.edu/form/little-wonders-story-time-registration) is required for the story time and space is limited to 25 participants. There is no cost to participate.

Want a little help gathering the materials? We now have Little Wonders activity kits, available for pick-up at the museum starting Thursday, May 20. Kits are $5 each; MNCH members are entitled to two free kits each month; discounted kits are available to Oregon Trail or other EBT card holders. Supplies are limited and kits are available on a first- come, first-served basis. Pick up your kit Thursday through Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.* You can also request to have your kits mailed to you. Complete the request form at https://mnch.uoregon.edu/form/little-wonders-activity-kit-request.

*Open hours are subject to change. Before you pick up your kit at the museum, please call 541-346-3024 or visit our website for the most current information: mnch.uoregon.edu/visit
