If you’re looking for a fun way to get out of the house this winter, I’ve got something special for you! I’m teaming up with Minnesota Children’s Museum to give away FREE tickets so a couple of families can experience everything this incredible museum has to offer. Plus I have an exclusive DISCOUNT!
Why visit the Minnesota Children’s Museum this winter?
When winter drags on and everyone’s climbing the walls, Minnesota Children’s Museum is one of the best places to escape the cold and let kids be kids. Warm, welcoming, and packed with hands-on fun, it’s a destination we especially love during the winter months.

5 Reasons to Visit Minnesota Children’s Museum This Winter
1. The Perfect Indoor Winter Escape
Minnesota winters are long. The Minnesota Children’s Museum offers a full day of indoor play, exploration, and movement—no snow gear required. Kids can climb, build, pretend, and explore while staying cozy inside.
2. Thomas & Friends™ Is Back
One of the biggest highlights right now is Thomas & Friends™: Explore the Rails. Kids can step onto the Island of Sodor, climb into Thomas’ cab, build train tracks, fix Percy, and solve fun engineering challenges through hands-on play.

3. Adults Can Play Too
This isn’t one of those places where parents just stand on the sidelines. Minnesota Children’s Museum is designed for families to explore together, with plenty of exhibits that invite adults to climb, build, tinker, and play right alongside their kids.

From racing up The Scramble with its climbing towers, slides, and netted catwalks, to engineering challenges in Forces at Play, there are lots of chances to jump in. On the fourth floor, The Studio encourages hands-on creativity with real tools and materials, while Our World makes it easy for adults and kids to play out stories together in a pretend town.
4. Learning Through Play (Without Feeling Like Learning)
Every exhibit is designed to support early learning—building STEM skills, creativity, problem-solving, and collaboration—while still feeling like pure fun.
5. Something for Every Interest
From trains and pretend play to building and hands-on exploration, the museum offers multiple exhibits to enjoy in one visit, making it great for families with kids who have different interests and energy levels.
