  • Let Us Be Your Classroom

    Field trips let teachers and students explore classroom concepts in a fun, hands-on environment!
  • Leave the desks behind…

    A field trip to your Mid-Michigan Children’s Museum will help you apply Michigan Grade Level Content Expectations and Common Core State Standards to real-world adventures. Kids will explore, learn and engage in an environment dedicated to supporting your teaching with hands-on experiences. Also, if you can’t come to us, we offer many of our in-house lessons as traveling extension lessons.

  • Our hands-on science programs utilize our galleries and address the Michigan Grade Level Content Expectations and Common Core State Standards for children up to 10 years of age.

    • Common Cents field trip – Common Cents Financial Field Trips provide financial literacy learning opportunities to elementary school-aged children. Students practice basic math and financial skills though fun, creative activities. Scholarships may be available.
    • Get Up and Grow lesson – Explore and examine the needs of a plant, piece together a flower from petal to stamen, and take home your own seedling to plant. This lesson is customizable to your class’ grade level.
    • Playful Polymer lesson – Make your own ooey gooey slime and learn about how much fun polymers can be! Students learn what exactly a polymer is, the properties of polymers, and how polymers move. This lesson is customizable to your class’ grade level.

    *2nd Graders Are 1st Class field trip – Unfortunately, we are no longer able to offer our 2nd Graders are 1st Class field trip. Don’t worry though, we are now able to offer two lessons – Buoyant Boat and Air Ventures! In these lessons, students are able to build and apply knowledge, problem solve, and think critically as they learn the unique properties of air and water through our hands-on, interactive galleries! To request these lessons, please fill out the “extension lesson” portion of the Field Trip Scheduling form. We apologize for any inconvenience.
