Welcome 
      to Central Illinois Premier Children's Museum located in Normal, Illinois

On-the-Go Program

Let’s us do some of the work for a school assembly, festival or special day at your school with our On-the-Go program. These programs are set up as stations and can accommodate large groups. Cost is $100 per hour up to 80 kids per hour with a $25 non-refundable deposit (applied toward fee). For the best experience possible, we recommend recruiting 3-4 volunteers from your school to help with the program.

Dino-on-the-Go

Grab your tools and get digging as you become a “paleontologist” for the day. Students will examine the paleontological process through hands-on discovery in a recreated dinosaur dig. We will also make fossils, see what it is like to put together a dinosaur, and create our own dioramas.

Grossology

Do you know what plaque is? Or have you ever wondered how toilet paper was invented? What about the gross things your body does to protect itself? Become a grossologist to find the answers and study the science of these really gross things.

Customized Programs

Have a special request or interest in a different topic? Give us a call and we will do our best to meet your needs. Call (309) 433-3450 for more information.
