Join us for a monthly celebration of hands-on exploration designed for children five and younger! These special playtimes are the perfect opportunity to focus on your little one’s development through play. Each month, we’ll feature a different play schema—key behaviors that help kids make sense of the world—and pair it with activities in the party room and an exhibit that brings it to life.

Caregivers can explore the science of play with insights from our museum educators, enjoy guided sensory activities, and discover simple ways to extend the fun at home.
