Exhibits

We hope you will come often and play in our fun, safe, and affordable facility! Learn more about our exhibits and amenities below.​

Craft Room – Your children’s creative mind will flourish in our fully stocked craft room. There are plenty of crayons, markers, seasonal crafts, stickers, and glue available for your little one’s newest masterpiece to take home and enjoy.

Grand Central Foods – The Grand Central Foods grocery store is sure to be a favorite with your kids! Children can pick their pretend produce from colorful bins topped with awnings, and buy their play milk and eggs
from a life like freezer and refrigerator display. Shoppers can then ring up their purchases at a do it yourself checkout stand with functioning cash register.

Agriculture Room - Moo!  Oink!  Cluck!  Come spend some time down on the farm in our agriculture room, brought to you by Corteva.  This room showcases farm and nature muraled walls, bees flying in the clear blue sky, an apple orchard, and corn field.  Harvest crops in the sensory table, build corrals around the animal barn, let your creativity bloom on the wall mounted Lego wall, and more.  Enjoy the newest rejuvenated space YACM has to offer.  Please be patient with us as we continue to add more to this exhibit! ​
