The Michigan 4-H Children's Garden is located on the campus of Michigan State University. It opened in 1993, as one of five gardens that are part of the Michigan State University Horticulture Demonstration Gardens.
The children's garden covers about half an acre, and it features 30 different play areas. These include a dinosaur garden, a pizza garden, a Peter Rabbit garden, an ABC Kindergarten garden, a Teddy Bear and Animal garden, a Storybook garden, and an Alice in Wonderland Maze which leads to a secret garden.
Some of the fun things kids can do are find lambs ear and feel the leaves, smell chocolate mint, dance on dance chimes, and cross over the Monet bridge.
The garden is open Monday through Friday from dawn to dusk. Admission is free, but parking is $3.00 for 1 1/2 hours or $5.00 for 3 hours.
