FEBRUARY 2018 | 21 10 Years Children ’ s Museum of PhoeniX The Children’s Museum of Phoenix is an award-winning facility that has encouraged imagination, inspiration, creativity and fun among children from birth to 10 years for the past decade. In 1998, the museum was founded as the Phoenix Family Museum by a group of volunteers. Three years later, Phoenix voters approved funds for the museum to purchase and partially renovate the historic Monroe School to become the museum’s new home. In 2005, renovation plans were set and the museum changed its name. Renovations began the next year and the museum opened the doors of its new facility in the summer of 2008. Today, the 48,000-square-foot museum encourages kids to explore 300 play experiences spread across three floors. The museum provides no signage or directions on how to interact with the exhibits, letting children inherently experience the museum in a way that suits their developmental level. Exhibits include the Art Studio, BlockMania!, Book Loft, Noodle Forest, Pedal Power and more — including an entire space for children 3 and younger. The museum also offers a variety of classes and events — from seed planting and paleontologist pretend play to baby yoga. In 2011, the museum was included in Parents Magazine’ s list of top 10 children’s museums in the country.
