The great architect Daniel Burnham once said, "Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men's souls." CMMV is not in the business of making small plans. We hope to build a 14,000 square foot building for children up to 11 years old and their families to imagine, create, dream, explore, and discover the magic in the Magic Valley. Some of these inspiring spaces will include:
- Dream Ship Climbing Structure
- Kid City Wing
- Snake River Water Wing
- Water Play, Spray, and Pour
- Agriculture Wing
- Kids Teaching Kitchen
- Art Studio & Maker Space
- Gather & Perform Area
- Dedicated Toddler Area
Outdoor Connect with Nature Garden The themes of building community, connecting to place, and discovering STEAM will be woven throughout.
