Denver Children's Museum - Post Remodel Part I

Working on downloading photos from my phone to the blog, so this may be broken up into a couple of posts. If you have never seen a children's museum space before, Denver is a great one to take a look at. Michelle first toured the Denver Children's Museum back in 2008, and have recently completed a remodel.

 New addition to the early learning space for young children, sponsored by Delta Dental (hence the white theme and teeth). They have defined this area as ages 0 - 3 (no shoes).
 Existing early learning space, forest











 Throughout the museum many art displays to thank donors for their support


 This is the Fire Truck exhibit, the most popular exhibit in the museum. Children get to play on a real fire truck, learn about fire safety, slide on a fire pole, try on gear ad more.

  1. I really enjoyed the tour of the children's museum. They have so many awesome and educational areas - there is a bubble station that was amazing, an actual woodworking shop, an art center with ceramics and painting, a reading nook, water play area, a cool fire truck, sensory room and more. Highly interactive and kiddos and their parents were having tons of fun!
