Start of the journey

We are starting the blog to share our journey from now through the opening of the Discovery Museum next year.  Although the process started a while ago, now the concept is slowly transforming into reality. 

Last month we visited Stockholm and ofcourse visited the Stockholm science museum and Tom Tits experiments with our 3yr old and watching him darting from one exhibit to another excitedly and trying out everything, asking questions constantly made us excited about getting this museum started in our own town.

Tampere is a very unique city although the atmosphere makes me think of it more of a town than a city.  With its two unique lakes and a very rich history and beautiful nature all around, I can't think of a more ideal place to start a Discovery Museum.  We want this museum to be a place where children of all ages can come experience hands-on exploration of nature, science and math. 

Next blog:  Where the inspiration came from to start the museum
