Maine Things To Do Discovery Museum: Bangor's Center For Children
Posted by mainetodo on Tuesday, August 21 @ 07:22:21 PDT

Fall,Spring,Winter,Summer: Bangor is home to the largest children's museum north of Boston, The Maine Discovery Museum. Kids love this place because of all the interactive displays. My kids love the hands on" learning areas that the museum has set up. Each floor offers visitors a chance to explore the world of nature, geography, children's literaturel music, art and science. If your kids love to sing or have dreams of becoming a recording artist, the "sounds abound" karaoke studio will be a big hit. If reading is their preference than a tour through "booktown" where each doorway opens up to a page of children's classic books such as Charlotte's Web or Tidely-Idely will be fun. For those who long for adventure and

global travel a trip through "Passport" may be just in order. Kids can visit the Australian outback or a marketplace in Ghana. "Artscape" allows that budding artist to create kenetic art and sculpture, learn about patterns and colors. "Mission Discovery" is my boys favorite part of the museum. Here kids can get involved in a hands-on exhibit where they learn the science behind movement, gravity, robotics and astronomy. "Body Journey" will be a hit for that upcoming nurse or doctor. The Maine Discovery Museum is three floors of fun and learning for your children and definitely worth the trip.
