We love visiting Fontenelle Forest and enjoying many of the resources the Omaha Public Libraries offer, and are very excited about this new partnership!

How It Works

Each of OPL’s 12 locations will have day passes available (one per day/per location) for check-out year-round to adults ages 18+ who are Douglas County residents or have a non-resident paid membership to OPL.

Passes are good for one-time admission on the day of the week designated on the pass. Each pass admits two adults and children from their household.

Individuals should check out the pass for the day they are interested in visiting Fontenelle Forest.

Only one pass may be issued per library card and customer.

Passes must be returned to any OPL location within five days of check-out. Unreturned or late passes will be subject to a $5 replacement fee.

 

How to See Which Passes are Available

To see which OPL locations have passes available for the day of the week you’re interested in visiting, visit omahalibrary.org and search for “Fontenelle Forest” in the online catalog. You may also call any OPL branch location to check availability.

 

Douglas County residents who do not have a library card may find more information about how to get a card at omahalibrary.org/get-a-library-card or by visiting their local branch.

Fontenelle Forest is the second community organization to offer free admission through Omaha Public Library. A similar partnership with Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium was announced in May 2017.

For more information, call or visit your neighborhood OPL branch location, or visit omahalibrary.org.

Exciting Challenges Await at TreeRush Adventures at Fontenelle Forest!

Looking for an exciting and challenging adventure with your family?

Experience zip lines, rope obstacles, moving walkways, and other exciting challenges through the beautiful treetops at TreeRush Adventures at Fontenelle Forest!

Special thanks to TreeRush Adventures at Fontenelle Forest for partnering with us on our recent experience to help us share all about this exciting new attraction!

See what all the excitement is about!

 

Exciting Challenges at TreeRush Adventures

All of the courses begin on one main platform where a staff member will double check your equipment before you begin your adventure.

 

Choose from a variety of difficulty levels with 2 Yellow Courses, 2 Green Courses, 2 Blue Courses, and a soon-to-come Black Course!

Each course involves a variety of challenges plus a Zipline or 2 that allows you to fly through the trees!

 

We started with the 2 Yellow Courses, which we loved! They were a perfect start to learn how to use the equipment and practice with the trolley for the Ziplines!

Then we tried the harder of the Green courses. It was definitely more difficult, with 2 challenges that really tested your strength and balance.

 

We then did the second Green Course, with fun obstacles, swinging challenges, and exciting ziplines!

 

Safety and Preparation

Upon arriving at TreeRush Adventures, guest begin on the platform where all of the gear is put on. It was great that each participant received gloves, which helped save your hands and fingers!

Then the staff led step-by-step directions on how to use the equipment, with safety as their #1 priority. Each participant was able to practice using their equipment on 2 ‘courses’ that were very near to the ground, with a staff member watching and able to answer any questions.

We felt completely safe throughout the entire experience. Several children needed to be assisted when they slipped from obstacles and were not able to get back on them (including my own), and it was very impressive how the staff was very encouraging and patient as they helped them get back onto the obstacle.

 

KidRush Adventure Park

For the younger participants, KidRush Park is perfect for ages 4 – 6 but is also fun for ages 7 and 8.

Young climbers can climb, crawl, and zipline while close to the ground!

 

Adventure Awaits!

 

We loved our experience at TreeRush Adventures at Fontenelle Forest and are excited about another exciting family attraction in Omaha!

Helpful Tips for Visiting the Omaha Children’s Museum

The Omaha Children’s Museum has been a family favorite of ours for years, and after countless trips exploring every inch of the museum, we have discovered many hours of fun and helpful tips along the way!

Whether you’re a first time visitor or are just looking for something new to experience on your next museum trip, we’ve got you covered!

Join our growing community and keep updated on Omaha family-friendly events and activities and Sign up for our Free Email Newsletter!

Lockers/Strollers

Coat racks and locker rentals are available inside the main entrance to the left of the front desk. The museum is fully stroller compatible, but for your convenience, stroller parking is available near the Wiggle Room in the Imagination Playground. Use the elevator immediately outside the Imagination Playground for stroller access to the second floor.

 

Exhibits

  • Art Smart Center
  • Charlie Campbell Science Center
  • Fantastic Future Me
  • Imagination Playground
  • S.T.E.A.M. Cave
  • Tinker Lab
  • Walker Tire Service Center
  • Zooland
  • Special Exhibits

Food

Depending on the length of your visit, you may want to consider having a snack or lunch at the museum. A variety of reasonably priced food options are available for purchase upstairs at the Rainbow Cafe. You are also welcome to pack food and enjoy it at the picnic tables outside, in the dining area immediately to the left of the main entrance, or upstairs near the Rainbow Cafe. Both levels have a microwave for guest use as well as high chairs for the littlest eaters.

Extras

Your museum entrance fee gets you access to all of the great exhibits, but you may want to consider budgeting just a bit more fun money for the carousel and train. Both rides are extra which can be purchased at the kiosk on the second floor, the front desk, or the Rainbow Cafe.

The Ball Room is one of our favorite places to play!

Older Children

There is truly something for everyone at the Omaha Children’s Museum, but if you are bringing older children, you’ll definitely want to stop by the Tinker Lab, Charlie Campbell Science Center, and the S.T.E.A.M. Cave. These areas offer opportunities to explore more challenging concepts and use real tools to build and create.

 

Younger Children

Omaha Children’s Museum has great accommodations for their younger guests. All restrooms have changing tables and a private, family restroom is available immediately outside of the Imagination Playground.

 

The Wiggle Room is designed especially for children three and under. You will find puzzles, blocks, and a variety of pretend play items for your little one to explore in a safe, calm environment. If your child finds themselves overwhelmed and in need of a break, the Family Room is a perfect place to settle down on a couch and read a book.

Babies

Visiting the museum is a breeze with babies! The building is very stroller-friendly and all restroom facilities include changing tables. You’ll definitely want to stop in the Wiggle Room which is equipped with soft, cushioned flooring perfect for tummy time or new sitters. Plus the wall of mirrors is especially appealing to little ones!

Breastfeeding mothers who want a quiet, private space to nurse are welcome to use the Nurture Room located within the Family Room.

Special Events

Omaha Children’s Museum has many special events scheduled throughout the year such as themed nights and seasonal celebrations. Take a look at the museum calendar to plan your museum trip with some extra family fun!

 

Helpful Tips when Visiting the Omaha Children’s Museum

Outdoor Attractions

The fun starts before you ever step foot into the museum! You’ll definitely want to leave some time to visit the Grass Patch, OCM’s outdoor playground. It features slides, climbing features, and plenty of green space to run around! You can also grab a book from the little free library to read on a shady bench.

Be sure to stop at the model fire truck right outside the museum’s main entrance. Kids love climbing all over and giving it a “test drive.” It’s also one of my favorite places to get photo opp!

If you plan to visit the Splish Splash Garden, you might want to throw a towel and a change of clothes in the car. The mini splash pad adjacent to the parking lot is the perfect way to end a summer day at the museum!

 

Messy Areas

We all know that kids are 100% washable, but if you’re looking to avoid potential messes there are just a couple of areas to be aware of. There is a face paint station and paint window in the Art Smart Center; however, in my experience the face paint washes off easily and my kids’ clothes have always come clean.

The water table in the Imagination Playground is also an area to watch for. If you’re concerned about clothing getting wet, the museum has waterproof aprons available for kids to use!

 

Join for Member Hours Perk

Member hours are my favorite part of my Omaha Children’s Museum membership. That extra hour of play at the beginning of each day is a game changer! The museum is much quieter and it’s easier for my little ones to navigate the exhibits. If membership isn’t in the cards for you, I recommend coming after lunch when many museum guests are clearing out to make it home for naps.

 

Daily Program Schedule

Upon arrival make sure you take a look at the video boards displayed throughout the museum. That’s where you’ll find special programming for the day such as Science or Bubble Shows, Storytime, and Character meet and greets. I usually snap a photo with my phone so I can easily reference the schedule throughout our visit.

There’s always something new to explore at Omaha Children’s Museum. I hope this guide helps you make the most out of each and every visit! Enjoy!

 

Omaha Children’s Museum

Location: 500 South 20th Street Omaha, NE 68102

Parking: Free parking is available in the lot south of the museum. While summer hours are in effect from Memorial Day to Labor Day, overflow parking is available across the street at Liberty Elementary School. There is also metered parking available on the surrounding streets.

FUN at the Standing Bear Lake Playground

The Standing Bear Lake Playground offers a unique play experience for kids of all ages. The playground features childhood classics like a slide and swings but also includes ropes and various climbing structures for open-ended play.

 

The canoe and various animal figures invite kids to create their own play scenarios and stretch their imaginations. And don’t worry about burning off that extra energy; the equipment offers plenty of opportunities to run, jump and climb!

 

Beyond being a fun change from your standard play structure, the scenery at Standing Bear Lake can’t be beat. Pack a lunch and enjoy the view from the picnic shelter or bring the bikes and take advantage of access to over three miles of trails!

 

Tip: Bring your sand toys for a fun surprise. Kids can dig for fossils and artifacts! Just make you cover them back up so someone else can excavate them next!

 

Location: Standing Bear Lake and Recreation Area Entrance 4, 6404 N. 132nd Street, Omaha. (off 132nd at Entrance 4 into Standing Bear Lake)

The Great Gnome Escape at Lauritzen Gardens

Calling all expert gnome spotters!

Lauritzen Gardens has been overrun with roaming gnomes and you can join in a Scavenger Hunt to help find them all! You’ll spot these mischievous little characters (25 in all!) nestled between the trees of the arboretum with only their pointy hats and long beards giving away their sneaky hiding places!

Join our growing community and keep updated on Omaha family-friendly events and activities and Sign up for our Free Email Newsletter!

 

Special gnome signage will lead you through the grounds to make sure you stay hot on their tracks, but be sure to stay on the path as to not disturb the gardens.

 

You can also follow along a kid-friendly StoryWalk of the book Go BIG or Go Gnome as complete your hunt. It’s a perfect way to keep kids of all ages excited and engaged!

 

Once your scavenger hunt is finished, hang out in the “Gnome Zone” for fun games like ring toss, bags, connect four, kerplunk and checkers. Make sure to take a moment to gnome yourself and snap a picture at the photo station!

 

Tips: It took my children and I just over an hour to complete the scavenger hunt. I suggest wearing tennis shoes as portions of the trail are wood chips. The arboretum is located directly across from the model train exhibit, so it’s a great opportunity to make a quick pit stop at a kid favorite!

Be sure to visit 8 of the Best Places to Visit in St. Louis with Kids when planning your trip!

 

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch

Look at this view from the Observation Deck!

If you are looking for a wonderful hotel near the Arch, the Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch is the perfect place to stay!

We loved sitting out here relaxing each evening high above the plaza, with a beautiful view of the Gateway Arch. It was mesmerizing the see the colors change as sunset fell.

On the morning of our scheduled time for the tram to go up the Arch (it is recommend to schedule these in advance as they often sell out!), we just walked out the front door of our hotel right to the Arch entrance. It was wonderful not having to worry about parking!

 

The pool is right next to the Outdoor Observation Deck! It also includes 2 hot tubs for the adults to relax.

 

The beautiful lobby is very different than your standard breakfast area. With a variety of seating options, it was perfect for the Free Breakfast each morning, and the 5:30 Kickback each evening.

It offered a wonderful place for gathering to share a meal, or to talk about the days plans.

 

Many Drury Hotels offer Free Breakfast each morning full of a variety of options, as well as their signature 5:30 Kickback each evening!

Tacos, pasta, chicken strips, a variety of soups and chili, baked potato bar, salad, nachos, and more were rotated each night and provided a delicious meal each evening. Adults also received complimentary drinks each night!

It was very nice to come back to the hotel after an exciting day exploring, and eat dinner and relax for the evening.

 

2 Room Suite with 2 Queen Beds

While there, we stayed in a spacious 2-Room Suite with 2 Queen Beds, a living area with a desk and pull-out couch, and nice bathroom.

This deluxe two-room suite features two rooms separated by a door, with two queen beds in the bedroom, a pull-out queen sofa sleeper in the living room and a TV in each room. The microwave and refrigerator are a necessity when traveling with kids!

The Suites are so nice to be able to spread out and have a separate bedroom!

 

Drury Inn & Suites St. Louis Brentwood

We also stayed at Drury Inn & Suites St. Louis Brentwood, which is a perfect location when visiting Forest Park, St. Louis Zoo, St. Louis Science Center, and The Magic House.

 

The Indoor / Outdoor Pool and hottub are perfect for relaxing and for the kids playing at the end of the day.

 

2 Room Suite with 1 King Bed

Here we stayed in a 2 Room Suite with 1 King Bed, living space, pull-out couch, desk, and bar.

This deluxe two-room suite features two spacious rooms separated by a door, with one king bed in the bedroom, a pull-out queen sofa sleeper in the living room and a TV in each room.

I felt spoiled staying in a Suite, and it was very nice to have a separate bedroom and living space!

 

One of the best things about staying at Drury Hotels was that we felt that each employee went out of their way to make sure we were having a wonderful stay.

From the welcome desk, to the dining area, to the pool, each staff said hello and asked if we needed anything and were happy to help with whatever we needed.

 

Wonderful Extra Perks

Guests at these Drury Hotels enjoy FREE Hot Breakfast and 5:30 Kickback which included a variety of options for dinner, plus drinks for adult guests each night.

This was fantastic and delicious as we enjoyed tacos, pasta, hot dogs, soup, salad, and more every night!

 

Additionally, popcorn and pop were also available each night in both locations – A perfect snack at the end of a busy day!

 

With the wonderful hospitality, perfect locations, spacious rooms, fun pools, and extra benefits including Free Breakfast and 5:30 Kickback, Drury Hotels are a wonderful option when looking for a hotel in St. Louis or in various cities where your travels may take you.
