LINCOLN – The Lincoln Children’s Museum is offering Game Day Play Dates during the 2022 Husker football season. This program offers parents and guardians the opportunity to register their child to attend a staff-led play date at the Museum while guardians head to Memorial Stadium to cheer on the Huskers. With the Museum located in downtown Lincoln, the convenience and atmosphere go hand-in-hand to make Game Day Play Dates a success.

“This program is a great opportunity for kids to grow up within the Husker fan-base, which is such an exciting part about living in Lincoln,” said the museum’s Director of Operations and Engagement Mandy Haase-Thomas. “Plus, parents and guardians can participate in their own Husker traditions while the kids get to have their own fun.”

Game Day Play Dates provide football-themed games and activities, time to explore the Museum exhibits, and a mid-game snack or the option of a meal from Kazoo’s U-Stop Café for games during lunch or dinner times. Attendees are also encouraged to wear their favorite game-day gear supporting their favorite team.

Game Day Play Dates are offered during most Husker football home games. The program is reserved for ages five to 12 and requires pre-registration. On game day, children can be dropped off 60 minutes prior to kick-off and picked up within 90 minutes after the official end of the game. To learn more, visit lincolnchildrensmuseum.org/GDPD.
