The museum was founded by educators and parents to foster curiosity through creative, hands-on play. Exhibits span multiple themed areas and both the original museum and the newer Discovery Zone location invite exploration. Online reservations are mandatory — visitors without pre-purchased tickets have been turned away even when the museum appeared empty.
