Hello! The hot summer continues.
If you want to spend a special time indoors with your children regardless of the season,
I recommend visiting the newly opened Haman Wood Culture Experience Center, which opened in July.
Haman Wood Culture Experience Center is a space designed for the whole family to easily and enjoyably experience wood.
Currently, it appears to be focused on children's programs during this temporary operation period.
From a wooden playground where children can touch, stack, and roll wood freely, to woodworking experience programs where they can create and take home their own crafts, various activities are underway.

Until August 30, it operates on a reservation basis for each session to ensure a pleasant experience and safe visitor management.
We are looking forward to the official opening in September.
Haman Wood Culture Experience Center is located within Ipok National Park in Sanin-myeon.
You can find it by going up the first parking lot of Ipok National Park, making it a great spot to enjoy the surrounding scenery.
As it is a newly opened facility, the interior is clean and stylish.
Upon arrival, you can inquire about experiences and make payments at the first-floor desk.
It is recommended to check the operating hours and availability through the reservation link on Naver before visiting.
During the temporary operation period, you can enjoy woodworking experiences and the wooden playground.
The wooden playground is available for children aged 24 months and older, with an admission fee of 2,000 won.
Similar to a kids' cafe, it allows for about 1 hour and 20 minutes of playtime, making it a convenient visit.
Woodworking experiences vary in time and price by program, so checking the reservation page before visiting is recommended.
We arrived a bit early and explored the wood culture exhibition space on the second floor.
Initially, I wondered how we would wait for our experience time, but the exhibition space was well-organized and engaging, making the time fly by.
It was impressive to see many interactive exhibits that engaged all five senses, allowing children to touch, draw, and smell.
The stamp experience, which allows children to learn about different types of wood along with leaves and fruits, was particularly enjoyable.
As we opened drawers under the display cases, we discovered additional interactive elements, making it fun to explore.
Experiencing the vivid and diverse colors of stamps made the time pass quickly.
Children can handle actual wood samples, observe leaves and fruits, and even smell different scents.
The characteristics of representative trees that can be easily found in Korea are well-displayed at a child's eye level, making it a great way for them to naturally develop an interest in nature.
Personally, I think it's rare to find a place in the Haman area where families can experience wood culture so thoroughly.
While exploring the exhibition, we soon moved to the woodworking experience room.
After making a reservation and payment at the desk, we received a ticket to submit upon entering the experience room.
The woodworking experience room was also neatly organized, equipped with various woodworking tools.
The atmosphere of the wood workshop was quite charming.
The experience we chose that day was making a circular caterpillar car.
All the necessary materials were prepared in advance, allowing us to start right away.
Although I initially thought the children might find using woodworking tools a bit challenging, the instructor patiently guided them one by one, explaining at their level.
It was impressive to see the children seriously following along as they learned.
They were quite focused on the process of sanding, gluing, and painting to complete their own creations.
Seeing them proudly holding their handmade wooden caterpillars was truly adorable.
The finished projects can be taken home, providing not just an experience but also a special keepsake for the children.
After the woodworking experience, we moved to the wooden playground located on the first floor.
The indoor play area is divided by age to ensure children can play safely.
The baby room for infants features a variety of cute wooden toys that younger children can safely play with.
For families visiting with small children, there is even a nursing room available for convenience.
The adjacent Dorandoran room is for children aged 24 months and older.
It seems like a great space for parents to bond with their children while exploring wood together.
With various wooden toys, including slides, children can freely move and play.
Between sessions, thorough cleaning and organization were conducted, ensuring overall cleanliness.
The variety and charm of the wooden toys caught my attention.
They have imported famous toys from abroad, and the quality and finish were impressive.
Even though they are children's toys, the designs are so appealing that adults might want to try them too.
It’s also fun that the experience goes beyond just playing with wooden toys.
There are machines available to enjoy games on a screen as well.
You can play bowling made of wood or stick letters on a magnetic board.
With various activities that require physical movement, it’s a wonderful space for families to enjoy together.
Most importantly, seeing the children happily playing around made me think, 'Can they really have this much fun for just 2,000 won?'
The affordable admission fee allows for a wide range of wooden toys to be enjoyed, providing great value for money.
Directly across from the Haman Wood Culture Experience Center are Ipok Cultural Park and Ipok Natural Ecology Playground.
Although the heat is intense now, it would be great to spend time at the wood culture center and then enjoy the outdoor playground when the weather cools down.
It’s a perfect place for a day trip with children, allowing for both indoor and outdoor fun.
Since it has just opened, it can be enjoyed relatively quietly.
If you’re wondering where to go with your kids during this hot summer, I recommend the Haman Wood Culture Experience Center, where you can touch wood and experience various activities in a cool indoor environment!
It’s a joyful play space for children and a place for adults to take a break.
If you visit Haman this summer, be sure to stop by with your kids.
Thank you for reading.
