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.
Things to know
Bring Socks
Some play zones inside the museum require children and adults to wear socks.
Pack Spare Clothes and a Towel
