KidsLab

Kids Lab

Put your arms around our colorful, larger-than-life (if you’re a kid) blocks and shapes. Stack ’em, connect ’em, build with ’em! A crawl-through kaleidoscope, the popular Gravity Wall, a puppet theater, and a reading area are designed just for our youngest visitors. Visitors in kindergarten and younger have this multisensory play area all to themselves.

KidsLab signage is in both English and Spanish.

KidsLab was made possible with support from the Ehrman Foundation.
