Dallas Children's Museum
Dallas Children's Museum
If you're traveling to Dallas with your family and your kids don't want to see one more historic spot, take them someplace they'll really enjoy- the Dallas Children's Museum.
The Dallas Children's Museum is a 6,500 square foot facility that will let your kids be themselves and touching of the interactive exhibits *is* encouraged. Some of the exhibits include Slice of Math where your kids can role play in a pizza parlor and unwittingly learn their fractions.
If you little ones want to work in the medical profession. The Presbyterian Health Care Systems Hospital has sponsored an exhibit where you kids can role play in the emergency room, operating room, newborn nursery and examining room--in the hospital and community health exhibit established by Presbyterian Health Care System. They will learn about the skeletal system joints, ligaments, and muscles, and physical challenges, safety, driving an ambulance and basic body functions. The purpose of the exhibit is to help children deal with their fears around doctors, dentists, hospitals, illness and injury and to learn how the body works. Because knowledge is power!
Another popular exhibit is the Kroger Grocery Store. It features child-size shopping carts, aprons, cash registers, scanners and learning cards to assist shoppers in selecting a balanced diet and understanding the food pyramid. In the exhibit children practice such math skills as sequencing, matching, adding, making change and completing tasks. Kids learn good information about food and nutrition, and can enjoy the experience of 'working' in a grocery store.
There are also puppet theaters, computer models and so much more. Your kids are assured of an afternoon of fun at the Children's Museum.
