WonderTrek Children's Museum

WonderTrek Children's Museum We are a developing children's museum serving five counties throughout Greater Minnesota. Further updates on our new site will be shared on this page.

The children’s museum brings together the region’s children and families in shared experiences that are grounded locally and open onto the wider world. We envision a more vibrant and connected region because all children enjoy the supportive relationships, expanding opportunities, and wellbeing they need to thrive. Right now, the offices of the Children's Museum are in the Franklin Art Center in B

rainerd MN. Stay tuned for more information on that and our upcoming remote programming opportunities.

🚧 Big things are happening at WonderTrek!

The curbing has been poured, the foundation is laid, and our Outdoor Adventure campus is beginning to come to life. Every new step onsite brings us closer to creating a one-of-a-kind space where children and families can explore, imagine, and learn through play in the heart of the Brainerd Lakes Area. 🌲✨

This is more than construction — it’s the building of future memories, adventures, and opportunities for generations of children.

Happy Bike to Work Day from WonderTrek! 🚲🌲✨

Today we’re celebrating movement, exploration, healthy habits, and the small everyday choices that help build stronger communities and a healthier planet. Whether you biked to work, school, the park, or just around the neighborhood, every ride is an adventure. 💚

At WonderTrek, we believe some of the best learning happens through movement, curiosity, and outdoor exploration — and biking is a perfect reminder that the journey can be just as meaningful as the destination.

Wherever your wheels take you today, we hope you find a little wonder along the way. 🚴‍♀️

Happy International Day of Families from WonderTrek! 💚🌎🌲

Today we’re celebrating the families, caregivers, grandparents, and communities who help children grow through love, connection, creativity, and play. At WonderTrek, we believe some of childhood’s most meaningful moments happen when families explore and learn together.

As WonderTrek’s Outdoor Adventure continues to take shape, we’re building more than a destination — we’re creating a place where families can make memories, discover nature, and experience wonder side by side for generations to come. ✨

Thank you for being part of the WonderTrek family.
