Iowa’s newest generation can learn about those who came before in this exhibition designed especially for children aged 10 and under. With adult supervision, young visitors can literally get their hands on Iowa history by playing with Duplo blocks, creating rubbings with crayons of Iowa symbols to take home, and sitting on a historic tractor.
