Shell-ebrate Turtles at Fernbank Museum

If your kids love animals, the Turtles exhibit (available through September 7) at Fernbank Museum is a must-see! We’ve already been three times, and my toddler still can’t get enough. With multiple live turtles and tortoises on display—including some graceful swimmers—this hands-on experience is both fun and educational for the whole family.

More to Explore at Fernbank

After you’ve checked out the turtles, be sure to visit Extinct and Endangered: Insects in Peril, a brand-new exhibit that shines a light on the fascinating (and fragile) world of insects. It’s perfect for curious kids who love creepy-crawlies.

And if the weather isn’t cooperating—or you just want to enjoy some AC—don’t miss NatureQuest on the 3rd floor. This indoor play space is one of our favorites, offering interactive fun, hidden animals, and plenty of room for kids to explore and burn energy (this is a perk of our membership)!

Plan Your Visit
