Day Trips Part 1: Five Closest Children’s Museums | Columbus Norfolk Moms

We have just a few weeks of summer left. It’s got us thinking about all the things we haven’t done yet this summer, but still want to do.

Over the next few weeks we are going to be posting a series of day trips that we are interested in taking and thought you might be too! So be on the lookout for the rest of the posts coming later this month!

Getting things started this week are five of the closest children’s museums that would be easy day trips from anywhere in Northeast Nebraska!
