Brooklyn Children's Museum

The Brooklyn Children's Museum is the world’s first children’s museum, established in 1899 in a structure that embodies a blend of modernist and historic architectural styles. It's a hands-on space dedicated to inspiring curiosity about the world, featuring interactive exhibits that engage children with science, culture, and art. Plan for a few hours to explore its various themed exhibits, including those focused on nature and world cultures. Weekdays tend to be quieter, making for a more relaxed experience. The museum is located in the Crown Heights neighbourhood, close to the historic Prospect Park.
