Our Mission
The Great Plains Children’s Museum is on a mission to create an engaging facility for children and caregivers in the Fargo-Moorhead-West Fargo-Horace area that supports a holistic approach to the early childhood journey.
Six Core Values
Play First - Creating learning experiences through a play-first and gamified approach.
Access beyond limits - Creating accessible programming, exhibits, and facilities that focus on opening doors for socio-economic limits, physical limits, social limitations, and beyond.
Caregiver Support - Providing resources, education, and connections for child caregivers to be the best possible support for their children.
Engaging the Senses - Curating experiences that will engage all senses for a full sensory experience.
Skilled Trades and Career Exposure - Highlighting skilled trades and career opportunities that are projected to have workforce gaps.
Natural Play - Utilizing as many natural, real-life, and youth-sized materials as possible.
