"Hands-on" means "Minds-on"!

Welcome educators! The Children's Discovery Museum of the Desert is the best destination to enhance and build new skill sets in a hands-on environment. We are happy to have many children from the Coachella Valley as well as children from other locations select the Children's Discovery Museum as one of the favorite places to visit on their Field Trips.

In addition to the Museum Gallery Field Trip program, CDMOD's Community Outreach program brings hands-on learning activities into educator's classrooms. Specially developed materials, based on second grade level math skills, bring our "Pizza Parlor" exhibit alive! From measurements to problem-solving the Community Outreach program is here for you.

This past year approximately 1300 classroom children have qualified for funding support toward field trip fees. Scholarships are awarded to classrooms with: a demonstrated financial need and priority given to classrooms that have not had the CDMOD Field Trip experience before. Through cards and letters we receive from the school educators and students, we know we have helped make their school memories and learning experiences valid.
