CURRENTLY CLOSED, NOT ACCEPTING VOLUNTEERS (last updated 9/15/20). The Treehouse Children's Museum serves children and families by providing interactive, hands-on exhibits and programs focusing on family literacy, children's literature, the arts, and the humanities. Treehouse seeks to be the magical place where children step into a story. Treehouse exhibits invite children, parents, and schoolchildren to step physically into the world of stories and books. Its interactive exhibits and programs promote the development and practice of vital emerging literacy and reading skills.
The Treehouse Children's Museum volunteers work as exhibit guides, assist with programs and special events, and complete group literacy projects. Volunteers are also needed to read stories with children. They also spend time interacting and assisting families as they explore the museum's exhibits. In addition, Treehouse volunteers help to prepare for museum activities and assist at community outreach events. Volunteers can even act as costumed storybook characters during special events. Volunteer opportunities are available for youth and adults 16 years and up. Youth ages 12 to 15 are invited to apply for the summertime special volunteer program (applications available in March).
The Treehouse Museum gave me a new perspective in how to educate children in a way that everyone will enjoy. -Lindsey Mayer, Ogden, Utah

The Treehouse Children's Museum was an amazing experience for me. The museum allowed me to work with children and help them do things like make art project. It allowed me to get a sense of what it would be like to be a teacher. All in all, it was a fun experience that I would recommend.

While volunteering at the Treehouse, I met a great number of people that I became friends with. The staff is very friendly and fun to be with, and the interactive exhibits, books, games, and shows enhance learning for all children. Overall, The Treehouse Children's Museum is a very great place to be.
