Welcome to wondertrek children’s museum
Giving Begins NOW!
Give to the Max Day | Thursday November 20, 2025
At WonderTrek Outdoor Adventure, we’re outfitting our future event attendees with Adventure Packs & Kicksleds for all-year long EXCITEMENT!
Adventure Packs – backpacks filled with tools to spark curiosity and hands-on learning in nature. Each pack helps kids explore trails, investigate the forest, and discover the joy of outdoor play.
Kicksledding – a fun and healthy way for kids to enjoy the outdoors in winter while building balance, coordination, and confidence. It encourages active play, teamwork, and independence, all while connecting children with nature in an exciting, screen-free way. At WonderTrek, we’re bringing kicksleds to our trails so families can experience the joy of gliding together, explore the beauty of winter, and make lasting memories in a playful and adventurous setting.
Whether you give a little or a lot, your gift helps bring smiles, movement, and year-round outdoor play to children and families in our community. Together, we can make winter wonder-full!

The Wonder of Learning Starts Here

“As a family, we love spending time at WonderTrek Children’s Museum.
We have been to their studio play labs on the weekends and have engaged with them at different community events. All three of my kids, ages 2, 6, & 8, get so excited on days we come to WonderTrek and wonder what adventures they’ll have because there’s always something new along with the familiar.”
– Shannon
“The environment is so different that it really gets your kiddos thinking in such a creative way.
We had a lot of fun exploring and making friends. My son became more and more confident the more he played and overcame new obstacles. We have also attended a couple of their outdoor events during the summer/fall. The kiddos are always so excited to explore what they have to offer! Thank you for all the work you guys put in to make this available in our community.”
– Amber
We’re ready for you
After ten years of dreaming up a children’s museum like no other, we’re gearing up to open WonderTrek’s Outdoor Adventure in early 2026.
But first, we need you. More than $6,000,000 has been raised thanks to visionary donors and lots of grant writing. Now, we’re in the final push and WonderTrek needs everyone who cares for kids and the vitality of our region to join the campaign. With $1 million to go, every donation counts!
