Museum of the Rockies is dedicated to nurturing the minds of young children through our exceptional early childhood programs. We believe in inspiring children to think creatively, expand their horizons, and embrace the joy of learning something new. Extensive research demonstrates that children begin learning from the moment they are born, and the preschool years are crucial for developing habits that lay the foundation for future academic success.
Our early childhood programs are thoughtfully designed to stimulate children's imaginations, encourage exploration of their surroundings, and promote hands-on discovery. We understand the importance of providing engaging and interactive experiences that captivate young minds and foster a love for lifelong learning. As a testament to our commitment, all of these programs are offered free of charge for our valued members. Join us as a member today to unlock the full benefits and enjoy these enriching programs with your child.
