The Children’s Discovery Room at The Museum of Idaho is fast becoming “the coolest place ever” as one young visitor put it. Children have a multitude of learning opportunities within the two rooms that recreate parts of the natural and cultural history of Idaho. The Discovery Room has proven to be a valuable asset to the community, the museum, and mostly to our youth.
   The Museum of Idaho is pleased to announce the formation of a special docent organization dedicated to keeping the Children’s Discovery Room safe, informative, and vibrant. As members of this docent group, volunteers will receive special training unique to the Children’s Room. Discovery room docents will have in depth knowledge of the room and all it has to offer children in order to engage visitors and help to make their experience more valuable. This special docent group will serve the Discovery Room exclusively; their knowledge and repore with children will be the key to making the Children’s Discovery Room the most valuable educational destination in the valley.
