Learning while playing is SERIOUS FUN at The Iowa Children's Museum!
The ICM currently offers three different fun-filled field trips for your class or group to enjoy!
  
Pre-registration is requested three weeks in advance for all group visits. Contact Lori Kaemmerer at 319.625.6255 ext. 209 to reserve your ICM Field Trip. And teachers, remember that you're always invited to visit the museum for free before you schedule your group visit!
Plan ahead! Requests are processed in the order they are received, and the best dates and times are booked early. Again, we request you book a minimum of three weeks in advance to guarantee receipt of pre-visit materials.
Confirm the date! With your pre-visit packet, you will receive a confirmation letter. For the CityWorks Focused Field Trip, you will also receive a voting ballot that needs to be returned two weeks prior to your visit.
Group Size: The minimum number of children for groups is 15 for Focused Field Trips and 10 for Self-Guided Field Trips. To ensure a quality experience for young children, we abide by the National Association for the Education of Young Children's recommendation for group size.
Chaperones are required for all group visits and MUST remain with the group at all times. One adult for every five children is required. Chaperones must be at least 16 years of age. Teachers and chaperones receive free admission.
Please arrive on time! Due to scheduling considerations, we will be unable to extend your time at The ICM. If you are more than 30 minutes late for a Focused Field Trip, you will automatically be given an orientation and self-guided field trip in lieu of your focused experience.
Lunch: Groups can purchase lunch in the Coral Ridge Mall Food Court or bring lunches to eat in the mall's public space.
Special Needs: We welcome children with special needs. For more information, contact Lori Kaemmerer at 319.625.6255 ext. 209.
ICM STUDENT ENRICHMENT SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, The Iowa Children's Museum is able to offer reduced rates for field trips through The ICM Student Enrichment Scholarship Program. These rates are based on the free and reduced lunch percentage at your school. This program is open to any school district and every class is eligible for funding. The funding is limited, however, and allocated on a first-come first-serve basis. For details on this program, please contact Lori Kaemmerer at 319.625.6255 ext. 209. This program is available thanks to our sponsors...
