Parents rejoice! There’s a fun, safe new place to take little ones to play in Eugene: the Adventure! Children’s Museum. Newly
minted exhibits — all built by volunteers — include a travel station lobby with postal locker scavenger hunt; Squish! A Pacific
Northwest Camping Experience; Stop the Presses: a Mid-Century Newsroom; Dig Site: Archaeologists and Paleontologists
Only; The Big Build: Block Masonry around the World; Busy Build: a Make-It Space, as well as an arts and crafts room, The
Tree House Library; Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre; and the Soft Rock River Bed quiet play area. Who wouldn’t want to hang
out in the Soft Rock River Bed quiet play area? With easy proximity to the city’s bike paths and bus station, and with ample
free parking, the 2,500-square-foot exhibit hall can be found inside Valley River Center mall, at the top of the escalator, right
above the movie theater. The museum’s exhibits are intended for ages 2-12. “Most of the visitors we’ve had have been in the
preschool to early elementary ages,” says the museum’s founder, Amelia Reising. “But we’ve noticed a lot of teenagers and
adults come in to play with their younger family members, and often they’re the ones building at the Lego table for an hour.”
“We’re on a quest to help grow kids into artists, innovators, and travelers,” Reising says. “We’ll offer eclectic classes, story
times, activities, and birthday parties.”
The nonprofit museum Adventure! Children’s Museum is open 10 am to 7 pm weekdays and 11 am to 6 pm weekends in Valley
River Center. Admission is $4 for adults and children and ages 2 and up. For more info, visit AdventureChildrensMuseum.org.
