Story Time with the Chicago Wolves
There’s always something fun to celebrate at DCM!
Each month, we’re spotlighting a fun, quirky, or inspiring day from around the world—think National STEM Day, International Rubber Ducky Day, Sweetest Day, and more! Join us for themed drop-in activities, story times, and a special Studio add-on that brings each celebration to life.
These mini-celebrations are included with museum admission or membership, so come see what’s in store and add a little extra pizzazz to your day!
All aboard for a day of imagination, exploration, and train-filled fun! Celebrate Model Train Day at DCM by stepping into the conductor’s shoes, creating your own train-themed projects, and discovering the magic of miniature railways. Choo-choo-choose to spend the day at DCM!
What it’s all about: Trains are more than just wheels on tracks—they’re a way to explore creativity, engineering, and storytelling. How can you design your own train adventure today? Experiment with building tracks, imagine a journey for your train, or create a story about where it might go next. Curiosity and creativity are your conductor’s ticket!
Quack, splash, and play! International Rubber Ducky Day at DCM is all about water, creativity, and a little bit of silliness. Bring your curiosity and join us for ducky-themed fun that’s sure to make a splash!
What it’s all about: Even the simplest toys can spark big ideas! How can you explore, experiment, and create today? Try observing how things float, test what makes your duck fly or spin, or design a new ducky game. Science, physics, and creativity are all in the mix—just add water!
