Our exhibits are designed with children age 12 and younger in mind, but play is for everyone! Infants enjoy looking at our colorful space from a stroller or caregiver’s lap, and once a child is mobile there are plenty of places for them to explore. We encourage older siblings and caregivers to play in our space as well!

Maintaining a safe and family-friendly environment is important to us. No adults are allowed in the museum without a child, and no child without an adult.*

All children need to be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 16 years old. If you have questions about our admission policy, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

*Adults with developmental disabilities are also welcome to visit with a caregiver; please inform our staff upon arrival or call in advance if you have any questions.
