Field Trips at HCM Minimize

The Harrisonburg Children's Museum is a great place for your students to explore a variety of subjects. Interactive experiences ensure that students internalize concepts while having fun! There are two options:

Free Explore trips are for preschool groups or other school groups that desire to have a self-guided experience. Free Explore trips are scheduled in 1.5 hour blocks of time.

Focused Field trips are for students in grades K-5 and are scheduled in 2 hour blocks of time. Students spend approximately half the time exploring the museum on their own.
