Families will enjoy a day of live entertainment, mud-themed treats, and much more, including the following muddy activity stations:
Café du Mud featuring supplies to make and decorate mud cakes, cookies, and beverages!
Studio in the Mud where the mud is the medium!
Tot Spot is the perfect space, full of sensory-rich activities, for our youngest guests – birth to 3 years.
And new this year is our Mudder Run where kids can run, jump, bounce and crawl through our muddy obstacle course.
After all the messy play, enjoy sprinklers, pools, and bubbles in the Kid Wash before the festival fun ends.
Plus, STEM NOLA will host a miniature remoted-controlled construction zone where guests can get to work on a muddy job site.
