The Children’s Museum of the Northeast Kingdom is heading into the woods for Halloween! Join us at Bandstand Park in Lyndonville during the community’s Trunk or Treat celebration for our Not-So-Haunted Forest!

Designed especially with children and families in mind, our little forest will be more magical than scary—a playful Halloween experience filled with fun, surprises, and treats. 👻🍬🌲

📅 Saturday, October 31
⏰ 5:00–7:00 PM
📍 Bandstand Park, Lyndonville

Come in costume, explore the forest, and celebrate Halloween with us!

We’re excited to bring the museum beyond our walls and into communities throughout the Northeast Kingdom—creating opportunities for children and families to play, explore, and connect together. 💚

See you in the Not-So-Haunted Forest!

❤️ A BIG THANK YOU TO CHERRY HOUSE BED & BREAKFAST! ❤️

The Children’s Museum of the Northeast Kingdom extends a huge thank you to Cherry House Bed & Breakfast for providing such a beautiful and welcoming space for our Board Retreat today!

We spent the day planning for the future of CMNEK and thinking about how we can continue growing to serve children and families throughout the Northeast Kingdom.

Cherry House provided the perfect setting. The space was lovely, comfortable, spacious, and able to accommodate our group beautifully — all at a very reasonable price. We are tremendously grateful for their hospitality.

We also want our community to know about this wonderful local resource! Cherry House’s Eastman Cottage can accommodate small meetings, retreats and special gatherings, in addition to the beautiful lodging offered by the B&B.

🌟 Could Your Business Sponsor a Free Friday?

We would love to make Free Fridays an ongoing program with the help of local businesses and community partners.

Sponsoring a Free Friday helps remove financial barriers and gives more Northeast Kingdom children and families access to enriching play-based learning experiences. Affordability and access are central to CMNEK’s work.
