Embark On A Journey To The North Pole With A Visit To Mississippi’s Children Museum
In just a couple of weeks, you’ll be able to experience the North Pole right here in the Magnolia State. That’s right — and it’s all thanks to the Journey to the North Pole event at Mississippi Children’s Museum. Dubbed the “ultimate holiday exhibit,” the annual event includes all sorts of festive fun, including a giant indoor slide and sock skating rink. Take a look:
Located in Jackson, Mississippi Children’s Museum offers educational fun year-round, thanks to permanent features as well as a variety of temporary exhibits.
One of the most anticipated exhibits, Journey to the North Pole (JNP) will be at the museum from November 26th until January 5th — and you don’t want to miss it.
During JNP, the museum’s Gertrude C. Ford Exhibition Hall is transformed into a 1,800-square-foot magical winter village, complete with twinkling lights and train cars.
*Keep in mind, kids must be at least 36” to ride the Snowflake Slide.
This year’s event will also include a few new activities, such as a clock tower slide and a kid-size post office that features a package sorting station and working conveyor belt.
Now “Jackson’s best family annual holiday tradition,” Journey to the North Pole is one event you don’t want to miss. And the best part is, a visit is included with general admission to the museum.
