Giveaway | Discovery Gateway | Salt Lake City | Field Trippin'

June 7, 2015

Now that is school is out it's time to start thinking of how you will keep your kiddos busy this summer. While they can certainly play outside, there will be days where it will be miserably hot. A great place to visit that will keep them cool and entertained is Discovery Gateway!

Plus, this year, they've partnered with the Utah Foster Care Foundation’s annual Chalk Art Festival, by planning both events to coincide on the same day!

Discovery Gateway children’s museum is located in the Gateway Mall in downtown Salt Lake City. Discovery Gateway offers 60,000 square feet of interactive, hands-on fun. You can explore their engaging workshops, programs, and exhibits that invite the whole family to create, learn, and play together! Exhibits Include:
