Kidspace Children's Museum Programs

Kidspace Children's Museum Programs include activities such as camping out, exploring nature, water play, road trips, planting, and growing. Children can climb into a giant hawk’s nest, splash and play in naturalistic water features, bring out their inner musician, and get physical with rockets and giant levers. The programs also feature projects, crafts, experiments, and adventures for young learners, along with learn-at-home resources and Kidspace videos for parents, teachers, and children.

• Ages: 1–10 years old

Kidspace Children’s Museum Programs take place at a nonprofit educational and cultural institution that hosts nearly 380,000 guests each year and includes more than 40 hands-on exhibits on a 3.5-acre outdoor campus. The S. Mark Taper Foundation Early Childhood Learning Center is a specially designed babyspace offering sensory and developmental adventures that promote and support brain building, and Muddy Boot Farm invites children to dig into planting, growing, and the farm-to-table food movement. The museum’s mission is to nurture the potential of all children through kid-driven experiences, inspiring them to become joyful, active learners, and it is described as a joyful place for families to play, learn, create, and grow together. Kidspace Children’s Museum offers a wide array of free and discounted programs, field trips, and digital resources for schools to maximize access for children and educators. Membership includes free admission every time a family visits, plus access to discounts, pre-sale events, and special experiences created just for member families, and admission can also be purchased as a gift that gives a day of exploration, imagination, and play at the 3.5-acre outdoor campus. There are splashable water features and other water attractions, and visitors are recommended to bring a towel and extra clothes.

Parent feedback describes many great things to do with kids, including areas in the back where kids can get wet and have a splash, and mentions that there are many different playground opportunities to keep kids active and engaged. One parent notes that there are great shaded areas for kids to play, explore, and climb, with benches for parents, and that their family stayed for six hours because the kids did not want to leave. Another parent comments that their child loved the place and had a lot of fun, and a reviewer recommends arriving early and bringing a towel and extra clothes for the water attractions.
