Every Child Deserves to Play — And Learn!
At the Hands On Children’s Museum, we believe every child should have the opportunity to explore, discover, and dream—regardless of their family’s financial situation. That’s why we offer more than 30 discounted admission programs to ensure that cost is never a barrier to learning through play.
Join us for an evening under the stars, where twinkle lights sparkle, laughter lingers in the air, and generosity lights the way. With your support, more than 100,000 children and families—over one-third of our annual visitors—can experience the joy and wonder of the Museum through discounted admission and memberships.
Your kindness fuels imagination and access through programs like:
- $3 daily admission for EBT cardholders
- $1 First Friday nights
- Access memberships for low-income families
- Field trips and curiosity kits for Title 1 schools
- Free dental screenings during Dental Health Month
- Supervised visits and parenting support programs
- Military family discounts and outreach
- Sensory-friendly experiences
- Timberland Library mobile memberships
- Prison outreach programs
Together, we’re building a more inclusive community—where every child gets to play, learn, and thrive.
