This is one of the most fabulous children’s museums in the world – in that it is a working, practical, usable place where children can playact ( of course , this is LA!) behind the curtains of a pretend stage, sit in a mockup aeroplane (after all Howard Hughes had his home here), cook in a pretend kitchen ( realistic looking mockup food and trays for serving, stove for cooking and more) and listen to story time all throughout the day. Then there are many places to bounce around, to read, sit quietly and look at pictures, hear short children stories, play with all kinds of interesting science like experiments, and so much more. The museum exists from donations made by people like you – and offers so much to children and parents alike. Help me in supporting them too. This paragraph below is directly from their site:
Zimmer Museum is an interactive museum for kids, where they can sit for a story, splash around at the water table, cook in the cafe, sing a song or create music and question and share their innermost thoughts. The child is encouraged to probe, question and explore
the exhibits at the museum. Book a year in advance for celebrating birthdays at
Zimmer. Check the website for upcoming exhibitions, programs and workshops at
