Some of the highlights include spending time wandering around Christopher Robin's favorite woods and visiting some of his favorite spots like Eeyore's Gloomy Place or Rabbit's Garden; bouncing along with Tigger and Roo and following their trails; spending a quiet moment in Owl’s library and reading about some of Winnie-the-Pooh's and Piglet’s adventures.

Other opportunities include:

  • Taking photos in front of Winnie-the-Pooh's house or in Eeyore's lean-to
  • Trying Winnie-the-Pooh's stoutness exercise
  • Reading in Owel's book nook
  • Learning about the history of the real-life bear named Winnie

There's also a special add-on experience called the "Hundred Acre Wood: Honey Hunt." Here, Christopher Robin needs your help to plan a party in the Hundred Acre Wood by finding all the honey and finish setting up the party before his friends arrive. Kids will have to work together as they race against the clock in this puzzle adventure, putting their problem-solving skills to the test as they find clues, solve puzzles and work as a team to find all the honey.

This experience takes about 45 minutes and is recommended for ages 4 and above. It does require an additional ticket that costs $8 and can be purchased here.

The Honey Hunt experience will only run on select days and times. Check the calendar here.

The Winnie the Pooh experience, sponsored by the Paper Store, will be open at the children's museum through June 30.

The museum is open Wednesdays through Sundays from 9 a.m. through 4 p.m. Advance admission is highly recommended especially during weekends, holidays, and school vacation weeks.
