Kids love to play, and parents love their kids to learn, so what if you had a place where kids can learn through play? Look at that – it’s Mississippi Children’s Museum, where kids can play with fun hands-on experiments that take them into a creative and imaginative world where they are in charge! 

Head to the Express Yourself gallery where kids can freely express themselves through visual means. They can get creative through a number of mediums – from music, dance, to art, where they can create whatever they like!

Exploring Mississippi features a super fun state climbing map where kids can learn all about the history, culture, geography and natural science of this incredible state! There are small and large motor experiences that will develop all the skills of the kids that are most important. From the Delta to the Coast – kids can really explore the entire state!

Love words? We hope so because you’re reading them right now! And kids can enjoy all the joy of words and creative expression through fun literary encounters , and encourage them to read!

Want your kids to have learn more about the importance of being healthy? Head on over to Healthy Fun where kids can learn all about the body, and why it’s so important to keep a healthy lifestyle, and make good food choices. Through fun interactive exhibits kids can learn about the skeleton, food markets and cooking!

So don’t tell the kids they will be learning – they will be too distracted with the fun interactive exhibits where they can touch, feel, move and create!
