Description:
Children’s Discovery Museum of San Jose (CDM) is currently a Youth Museum Exhibit Collaborative (YMEC) participant. As such, we currently have on display Run, Jump, Fly: Adventures in Action, by Minnesota Children’s Museum (MCM) – an incredible active-lifestyle focused exhibition!
I have seen it’s popularity from an employee’s standpoint, but also as a mom 6 and 8 year old girls. My 6 year old learned how to do an entire run on the Monkey Bars this summer, as well as her first ‘flip’ on a Pull Up Bar – note, that I don’t think flips are ‘allowed,’ but she was thrilled just the same.
There is also a ski/surf simulator and a rock climbing wall among other amazing and health-focused activities. This was a wonderful way for kids to play indoors and do exercise. Like usual, MCM hit the mark!
