May is Minnesota Museum Month

Walker Museum in Minneapolis
Minnesota Museum Month

With the arrival of warmer weather, its only natural to focus on outdoor activities for your summertime staycation, but fresh-air fiends can combine some culture with your walkabouts by visiting one of these local treasures in Minneapolis and St. Paul.  The folks at Meet Minneapolis have a great article on museums where you can take the whole family.  Museums aren’t the dreary halls of mind-numbing artifacts that only the hoplessly nerdy enjoy.  Today, museums focus on engaging the audience and instilling an interest in their particular field.  You’re sure to find yourself having a soul-satisfying experience, and you’ll broaden the horizons of your kids, too!  Speaking of children, I’d suggest starting with the kid-friendly Minnesota Children’s Museum in St. Paul where they can touch and play without constantly being scolded.
