WonderTrek Children’s Museum
CHILDREN’S MUSEUM • OUTDOOR PLAY
The children’s museum brings together the region’s children and families in shared experiences that are grounded locally and open onto the wider world. Dynamic, material-rich environments, exhibits, events, and programs engage children in the joy of play and the wonder of learning.
Bringing Back Everyday PLAY!
Highlights
Monthly Outdoor Play Lab on the first Sunday of the month at a range of locations within Minnesota's Region 5.
Minnesota's New Gateway to PLAY! will be located in the heart of The Brainerd Lakes Area, right off of Highway 371 and just South of Highway 210, Baxter, MN. Phase 1 of development is underway, featuring 9 acres of fenced in freedom designed to restore the foundational experiences that naturally come from play and exploration. This expansive and unique space will be irresistible to children & parent approved! Phase 1 is on track to open to the public in early 2026.
We also continue to operate a Mobile Play Lab to spark imaginations across our region's schools and special events!
About
The Wonder of Learning Starts here! WonderTrek’s interactive exhibits, events, and programs spark curiosity and foster a love of learning. Our region is one of the last in MN without its own children’s museum, but together we can create a year-round destination blending hands-on learning and endless fun for all!
