My boys absolutely love going to the Walla Walla Children’s Museum. As a parent, I am always looking for activities that will entertain my kids outside of the house. Now that the weather is colder and wetter, we are all feeling a little more cooped up.

The WWCM has a variety of activities, both indoors and outdoors, to keep young minds and bodies busy and active!

The indoor rock wall and slide are great for days that are too cold to spend outside. I love watching my son gain confidence in his climbing skills as he masters the wall a little more each time we visit.

Kids can even monkey around on a fire truck at the Children's Museum!

The sand and water tables are a sensory experience must! It is hard to pry my guys away. There is something about water that is a magnet to kids, and – bonus – no mess at home.

They have a variety of other activities and rooms. Such as a kitchen, ball run, art supplies, Lincoln Logs, dinosaurs, blocks, and so much more.

The outdoor area is full of things that will fuel imaginations, including a fire engine, boat, teepee, and sand pits. My kids could be here for hours. Come check it out! They are open Friday-Monday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
