Young At Art (Rainy Day Fun)


Hi Everyone,

Rain rain go away, come again another day. Looking for something fun to do with the kids outside of the house? Where to go now that everything is wet? Yeah so were we. So I decided to take Logan to Young At Art (YAA).

The YAA is a fun place for kids to explore and get in touch with their creative side. They have a variety of rooms to visit as well as many craft stations set up through out the museum.

STOMP room
  • Wonderscapes (toddlers zone 5 and under)
  • Artscapes
  • Culterscapes (making waves)
  • Greenscapes (STOMP)
  • Knight Gallery (this room changes theme)
Here's a link to go check out the exhibits for your self before heading out. http://www.youngatartmuseum.org/exhibits.php


This place is fun for all age groups from toddlers to teens. They also feature a Broward County Library inside the museum. This is where we get our bedtime books. Plus the books can be returned at any Broward County Library.

So lets get to it shall we! Heres a run down of a few of the exhibits and features at YAA.

Wonderscapes
Wonderscapes is a wonder area set up for kids 5 and under. It features areas like
Logan playing with floam

  • Alice's art and games (different crafts are set up daily, today was floam)
  • March Hare's Farm Stand
  • Alice's Garden
  • March Hare's House & Tea Party
  • Alice's Pool 
  • And other fun stuff (such as trains)


Artscapes
Artscape is a fun place to wonder around and interact with.
  • Wired (digital fun)
  • Diggin' It (pretend to be a paleontologist)
  • Dreamscapes
  • Plus plenty of other interactive areas
Culturescape
Culterscape is a fun area to play in. There is a lot to do here. The kids can climb in the wave or play some drums.
  • Art Passport
  • Making Waves
  • Create-It-Station
  • Drum hut

Drum Hut
* The wave is pretty big and the kids can climb in it. Super fun for them but it can be difficult to climb in yourself if you have to get them out.






Greenscapes
Greenscapes is highlighted by the STOMP room. This room is themed from the show STOPM and is filled with different things for them to hit with drumsticks. It also features a slide.
*It can get quite loud in there depending on how many kids are playing in there.

Knight Gallery
The  exhibit on display here is changed periodically. The exhibit on display now is Transformation of Echo: World of Dreams and will be on display till January 3rd 2016.
It is a little weird and almost spooky, my son was a little afraid at first until he saw some other kids running around in there. Also there is a cool mirror tunnel for the kids to go through and a slide.


















All in all this place is fun. I know when we go we can be there for a few hours.


  • Price: It would cost a family of four $56 ($48 if Broward residents). Here is a link for pricing and directions. http://www.youngatartmuseum.org/
  • Fun Factor: This place has a lot to see and do. We can spend a few hours here easy.
  • Cleanliness: YAA is very clean and well kept.
Thanks for visiting!
