About this place

Hong Kong's first and only independent children’s museum dedicated to play-based learning. Families visit to allow children to learn through hands-on, self-directed exploration without "do not touch" constraints. The exhibits are carefully curated to promote interest in language and literacy, S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), culture, and environmental protection.
