Dear Home School Groups of The Great Lakes Bay and Surrounding Areas: We would like to introduce you to the Mid-Michigan Children’s Museum (MMCM) located at 315 W. Genesee Avenue in Saginaw, Michigan. Our Mission is to provide a fun, hands-on place where children use their curiosity & creativity to learn about their world in the eight different galleries that we offer. A guiding principle of the MMCM is to broaden and enrich the educational opportunities for children ages birth through twelve years to enhance their understanding of the world and foster a passion for lifelong learning.

The Verve Pipe (well known for their 1990's hit song "The Freshman") will be at the MMCM on Saturday, November 28, 2009,* at 1:00 p.m. to promote their new Family Album.

A representative from the Chippewa Nature Center will be at the MMCM to talk about “going green” and to host a recycled craft.
