Nature Discovery Center at the Heritage Museum

Something new at the Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich: The Hidden Hollow, a new Discovery Center. It's a perfect place for families with children to spend the day. This new outdoor space, which opened this summer, will allow children to explore, discover, play and learn. Families can enjoy nature as they walk the discovery trails, step across wood stumps, build with blocks and sticks, create nature-inspired art, play music on outdoorsintruments, dance on the stae and engage in scientific investigation. Each week a new theme will be explored. The kids will have so much fun that they won't even know they are learning. http://www.heritagemuseumsandgardens.org/.
