The Building for Kids originally housed only the Fox Cities Children’s Museum, but the plan to expand it came to be in 2006. With exhibits designed by kids for kids, the attraction is one of the most visited in Appleton by families with children of all ages. There are so many interactive exhibits for children to explore their imagination while learning about their surroundings in a creative and safe environment. Some of the exhibits more popular with visitors include the 10-foot human heart that lets the kids slide down an artery, a castle-themed mini golf adventure that lets young visitors outsmart a dragon, and the Credit Union’s Littlest Branch, a place where little ones can be a teller, make transactions, and learn about money.
