Museum - Interactive

Interactive and Children Museums There are those who might argue with labeling the Exploratorium a children's museum and they're probably right. This collage of over 650 science, art, and human perception exhibits in San Francisco's Marina district provides endless fascination to both kids and adults - in fact, it leads the movement to promote the museum as an educational center. Satisfy your curiosity through the innovative environments created here, and enjoy the breathtaking location of the Palace of Fine Arts after you fill your head with all those fun facts! Open 7 days a week during the summer (Memorial to Labor Days), and closed Mondays for the rest of the year.

In Sausalito, the Bay Area Discovery Museum offers hands-on exhibits for children that include climbing on a fishing boat, learning to ride a unicycle, and creating clay animation movies. Children can even work with scientists, artists, and other creators. Call for hours and admission prices: 415-289-7264.

Will you be in San Jose? Be sure to visit the Children's Discovery Museum, designed for children up to age 13. Interactive exhibits and programs span the arts, science, technology and the humanities. You can't miss the building - it's big and purple! Call for hours and admission prices: 408-298-5437.
