School Field Trips

For the price of admission, the children get a hands-on interpretive educational presentation in the classroom that generally lasts 30-45 minutes depending on how long the children stay focused. You get to spend as much time as you like in the exhibit area before and after the presentation. It often works well to have the children run around in the exhibit before the presentation. Also, for groups larger than 25, we will generally split them up and have half in the class and half in the exhibit area and then switch. We also have an educational scavenger hunt for the children while in the exhibit area.

Our interpretive educational presentations are geared to match the Michigan Department of Education science benchmarks.

The price of admission is:

Age 2 and under are free
Ages 3-11 are $5.00
Ages 12 and up are $7.00
Seniors are $5.00
Memberships do not apply to field trips
