MS Children's Museum Logo Join the Mississippi Children’s Museum (MCM) as we welcome spring with Bunnies & Butterflies on Saturday, April 8 from 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. Our beautiful garden spaces will spring to life for this special weekend celebration!

Children are invited to dig into the warm soil as they learn about gardening, discover the science behind bubbles, and create their own unique spring costume accessory!

Families will also get the chance to pet real bunnies as we welcome spring to our outdoor spaces!
