Start Spring in McKinney Educated & Well-Fed

The Heard Natural Science Museum and Wildlife Sanctuary is a 289-acre nature preserve in McKinney, Texas that aims to connect visitors with nature to inspire within them a deeper appreciation of the environment. You’ll find monthly bird walking tours, nature story time for kids, even wetland canoe trails. With spring break time approaching and The Heard’s special BUGS LIVE exhibit featuring giant animatronic bugs, it’s also a great educational opportunity for families this season.

Before heading to the museum, start the day at District 121’s Broken Yolk Cafe. This family-friendly restaurant is a great place to relax and enjoy a homestyle meal for breakfast, brunch or lunch, making it the perfect place to fill up before a day of exploring and learning. And this spring, the McKinney location is offering a Senior Discount every day.

McKinney History Is Ideal for a Texas Spring

Spring is the season for McKinney. The city was named the county seat of Collin County on March 16, 1848, after founder Collin McKinney. This makes visiting Historic Downtown McKinney an ideal spring adventure, and visitors will find much to do in this picturesque area.
