Although I’ve never been there, I hear that the Mall of America is great. It’s an impressive spectacle of consumerism, and it’s a must-see if you’re in the Twin Cities area. However, I’d imagine that it’s not the most educational place to take your kids. Luckily, Minnesotans have the Minnesota Children’s Museum in St. Paul. It was named by Cookie Magazine as one of “sixteen road trip-worthy museums that put the emphasis on children.” The Museum is loaded with cool exhibits like Earth World, which focuses on local habitats, and Habitot, which creates exploration opportunities for toddlers. They also play host to exciting traveling exhibits like Dinosaurs, which will be arriving in 42 days (they have a countdown on their homepage).

Now, Minnesota Children’s Museum may not be record-breaking big, but it makes up for it with awesome educational opportunities. A monstrous mall just can’t compete when it comes to intellectually stimulating activities for kids. But what about intellectually stimulating jobs for you? The Minnesota Children’s Museum Jobs page only shows one position posted right now, but it’s a cool one. They’re looking for an Exhibit Graphic Designer. It appears that they’d prefer someone with experience both in museums and graphic design, but I think someone who has been doing the right things throughout college might be a perfect fit. You can find application instructions with the job posting, and you can keep an eye on the MCM Jobs page for more opportunities in the future.
