For Immediate Release
January 4, 2007

ST. PAUL, Minn. - Bob the Builder™ – Project: Build It, Minnesota Children’s Museum’s newest exhibit, brings visitors into the world of Bob the Builder™ and his Can-Do Crew. The exhibit invites exploration, inspires teamwork and brings environmentally friendly building themes to life for children and families.

Visitors can enter Bob’s mobile home and help fix a drip in the sink; join the team and build part of the machine shelter for Roley, Scrambler, Scoop, Benny and Muck; drive one of the machines; redecorate Wendy’s caravan; and learn about water conservation at Farmer Pickle’s water pump. The exhibit is open Saturday, Jan. 13, through April 22, 2007.

Inside the Exhibit
· Meet the Can-Do Crew – Construct an afternoon of activity – build memories and snap photos with a life-sized, three-dimensional Bob the Builder and Benny, the specialist digger.

· Bob’s Mobile Home - See Bob the Builder’s blueprint for success as children explore their favorite builder’s mobile home. Children can be part of the crew and help fix the drip coming from Bob the Builder’s sink or watch video clips from the popular series.

· Build the Machine Shelter - Be part of the team, laying stones in the walls of the machine team’s shelter and building stalls for Roley, Scoop, Benny, Muck and Scrambler to sleep.

· Drive a Machine - Let’s Scram! Climb aboard the off-road vehicle Scrambler, rock and roll with Roley the Steamroller and dig up fun with Scoop the Digger!

· Talkie Talkie - This problem-solving crew has a lot to say and each member has a special phrase. View a picture of each team member and push a button to hear their famous catch phrases, “No prob, Bob” or “Let’s rock and roll!”

· Wendy’s Caravan - Wendy needs some help from the team to refurbish and decorate her caravan and plant beautiful flowers.

· Water Pump - Farmer Pickles isn’t the only one in Sunflower Valley that knows that water conservation is important. Children can explore the interactive water pump station, learn important messages about water conservation and help to bring water to Sunflower Valley.

The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis created the exhibit, which is presented by Delta Faucet, sponsored locally by Pulte Homes, Star Tribune and inspired by HIT Entertainment’s top rated television series, Bob the Builder – Project: Build It.
