What is unique about a children’s museum?
Children’s museums provide exhibits, educational programs and special events to inspire informal learning through play. While traditional museums typically have a “look, but don’t touch” policy, Knock Knock features interactive Learning Zones (exhibits) that are designed to be “hands-on.” We promise to keep your child busy!
What is a Learning Zone?
Knock Knock’s Learning Zones (exhibits) are informal interactive learning environments which provide “teachable moments” that connect children’s every day experiences with hands-on learning through play.
Who will Knock Knock serve?
Knock Knock Children’s Museum is designed for children birth to age 8 and their families.
