Attention little shoppers! The Grocery Store has an ever-changing selection of foods and other household goods. Select fresh produce, compare deals, and ring it all up at the cash register! This exhibit builds the foundation for healthy consumption habits.
Order at the window or have a seat inside the Cafe. Use your imagination to become a chef and craft a delicious, nutritious plate made-to-order. Don’t forget the dishes!
Become a doctor or a dentist and take care of your patients whether they have a broken leg, a broken tooth, or just need a check up. Use our X-ray light to check out real pictures of broken bones!
Put on your hard hats and head over to the Construction Zone. Use your imagination to build and grow! Get hands on learning experience about tools. This exhibit encourages building and engineering with both fine and gross motor skills.

Kids & little critters have one thing in common: they need care! At the Kids & Critters Care Corner, learn about how to care for a young life. Take responsibility for bathing, nursing, naps, and more in our cozy clinic.
APCM provides an enriching environment where children and their families can learn about themselves, their communities, and the world around them. Integrated throughout the museum is a broad range of creative exhibits and imaginative hands-on activities, which foster a climate of learning and exploration. Central to the museum's philosophy is that children can learn through the arts, history, science, and the region's rich environmental and cultural diversity.
