Little Artist Project
May 15, 2021
Sealife Mural
Our entryway looks like it needs a little life. Would you like to help? All we need from our little artists are drawings of sealife. Fish, sharks, turtles, starfish, coral, seahorses…if it lives in the ocean, we would like a colorful picture of it! You can draw it here at the museum or send us a clear picture of it via email (baraboochildrensmuseum@gmail.com) and local talented artist Megan Watson will include it in her mural here at the museum this summer. Please have your entry to us by May 31. We are excited to see all of the creations!

Best of the children’s museums I have visited recently. Especially with all of its cars and moving vehicles, my son loves all that. Also the create art area, cool shopping exhibit as well. Even a nice closed off area for baby/toddlers, including comfortable changing area where you can also breastfeed. Loved all of it.

My sister has a one year old who hasn’t been socialized too much with too many kids of different ages. He had a blast meeting new people and playing with everything. So much for him to touch and do for hours. Even open Sundays?!? AMAZING! Took my big sister and little mister as a surprise and she loved it as well. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much.
