Curious George™: Let's Get Curious! Exhibit is Nonstop Fun, Ends Jan 5

Little ones' discover science, math, and engineering through play.

September 12, 2019




Young learners and their families will love exploring the new traveling exhibit, Curious George™: Let's Get Curious! at the Children's Museum of Atlanta on display through Sunday, January 5, 2020This highly interactive experience will inspire little ones’ natural curiosity as they discover science, math, and engineering through play.

 

According to Jane Turner, the museum's executive director, the exhibit reinforces learning through the power of play. "From exploring the physics behind mini-golf to solving the math behind weighing and counting produce, this experience will spark little ones’ imaginations and sense of discovery,” says Turner. 


Kids have the opportunity to explore the magic of the neighborhood where the famous inquisitive monkey lives with his best friend, The Man with the Yellow Hat. They can operate pulleys and levers at his apartment; weigh fruits and vegetables at the neighborhood produce stand; design a building at the construction site; care for animals at the local farm; and more





Curious George's Crazy Golf was right up my little character's alley! It was enjoyable listening to him describe his likes and dislikes in the market and watching reading his expressions too. It was hilarious watching him try to figure out a rotary telephone. He argued with me that this is not a phone. He looks really entertained, right? 




In addition, the Children’s Museum of Atlanta’s Imaginators performs the mini-musical “Kid Detective” daily. This mini-performance takes the audience members on a hunt as they follow clues with Kid Detective Jo while he tries to help his friend Bumble find his way home. And you'll love Imaginator Jerry. He's our favorite!



We enjoyed the variety of activities, as well as our favorites while at the museum. Plan to stay a few hours because there are so many things to do. 


There's no shortage of Curious George merchandise either! For more information, visit childrensmuseumatlanta.org.
