is a 1,500 square foot interactive exhibition for children
ages 5 and younger and their adult caregivers. The exhibition
opened with the grand opening of the new Long Island Children's
Museum in 2002. The exhibition focuses on supporting the Museum's
repeat visitorship of young children and their parents and
caregivers, with spaces for play, quiet sharing, role play
and human development exploration. Emphasis was placed on
allowing for open-ended discovery and serving visiting groups
of pre-K classes. A Parent Resource Area was created to provide
multiple levels of information pertaining to early childhood
educational theory, local resources for parenting education,
as well as resources specifically for caregivers.
