Integrate your social studies, science and language arts curriculum in the Texas Pioneer Adventure exhibit. This nationally award-winning, two-acre exhibit will take your students back in time to see the land as the pioneers saw it. They will record data and experiences in their own explorer's journals as they explore a tepee, a real sod house and two settlers' cabins. We will challenge your students' imaginations and encourage them to consider creative, practical solutions to problems encountered by the Texas pioneers. Students will also investigate native plant gardens, a crop garden and go on a hunt in our kitchen garden to discover plants used for medicine, food, clothing and even insect repellent!

Hour-long guided tours led by a certified elementary teacher are designed with special activities for each grade level.

Tuesdays - Fridays; K - 6th grade; $5.00 per child.
