Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles exhibit open

Special to Fort Myers News-Press

After more than three decades of battling evil and exemplifying teamwork, the beloved Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) are featured in a museum exhibit for children and families to enjoy at the Children Museum of Naples. The four funny “heroes in a half shell” share life lessons and team-building skills with their crime-fighting tactics in Nickelodeon's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles™: Secrets of the Sewer™ open now in Naples.

At the Children's Museum of Naples, families will be transported to the underground home of the crime-fighting heroes to see what really happens in their secret hideaway. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brothers Leonardo (the tactical, courageous leader in blue), Michelangelo (the free-spirited jokester in orange), Raphael (the aggressive tough guy in red), and Donatello (the scientist and technological genius in purple) invite families to their New York City sewer lair to train together and learn about the Turtles’ comedic, skillful strategies.

“The whole is often greater than the sum of its parts and we are hoping children and adults will be able to discover this in their own families as they work together. Along the way, our visitors will discover how each member of the team has something unique to contribute and they can accomplish a lot more together than they can alone,” said Jennifer Pace Robinson, president and CEO, The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis.

The Turtles are known and respected for their teamwork. As the TMNT’s sensei and adoptive father Splinter often tells them, “Together there is nothing you cannot accomplish.” Through teambuilding challenges, collaborative game and mind-teasing puzzles, families and friends will learn skills to help them successfully work together. Here are a few examples: h Build a “bridge” together and think creatively as a team to overcome challenges. h Assemble two electrical circuit puzzles by taking one apart to build another. h Plan ahead and use patience to navigate the rope maze. h Practice ninja speed and slicing skills while playing a dexterity-based computer game. h Shred up and practice your balance on skateboards. h Create a sewer pipe together and see where it goes.

The Turtles took the comic book world by storm in 1984 – and since then Donnie, Raph, Leo and Mikey have brought Turtle Power to cartoons, movies, video games and toys!
