Campfire Story Time

Gather around the campfire for a cozy holiday story session at the Discovery Center! Your family will hear "The Tree That Came to Stay," a touching tale about memory, feelings, and saying goodbye to things we hold dear. The story explores how we can treasure happy memories in unexpected ways, making it a thoughtful choice for the season. This isn't just a read-aloud—it's an interactive experience designed to engage young imaginations. During the program, children will pass around a basket of fragrant pine needles, just like characters in the story, giving them a moment to reflect and connect with the narrative through their senses. The session takes place in the Great Outdoors exhibit and is included with regular museum admission, so there's no extra cost beyond entry. This gentle, sensory-focused program works well for children who enjoy meaningful stories and hands-on activities.
