The Great Ground Sloth · Mississippi Museum of Natural Science

The Great Ground Sloth

Slow down and step into the shoes — or claws — of the Giant Ground Sloth! Discover how these towering Ice Age giants lived in the prehistoric wild. Through slow-motion challenges, claw-tastic crafts, and mega-mammal measurement labs, young explorers and their grown-ups will compare these ancient animals to their modern-day relatives.

Looking for something fun to do with your kids this summer? Then join MDWFP’s Mississippi Museum of Natural Science for Fun Fridays. Each Fun Friday will have a new theme where we will explore activities that feature astonishing humans, amazing animals, or crazy STEAM challenges through hands-on stations spread through the museum. Fun Fridays are suitable for families or groups with children ages 4 and up and are included with museum admission or membership.
