The Everett Children's Adventure Garden is a true kids’ wonderland, an indoor-outdoor plant museum and a playground that offers children endless opportunities not only to have fun but also to learn about the natural world through a hands-on exploration of the wonders of science and nature.

When it was opened in 1998, the garden was the first plant museum for children of its kind in the United States. The garden includes such areas as boulder mazes, more than 40 nature-discovery activities, trails, topiaries, galleries, a picnic area, plazas, and more. The outdoor galleries provide a look at plant lifecycles, what plants are made of, what ecosystems are, how plants and animals interact, and how the sun makes plants grow. There are also boulders to climb, Beth’s Maze to wander through, and Plant Part Paradise, where kids can make their own plants.
