Discovery World on Market
About This Museum
People don't just come to Discovery World on Market for a rainy-day distraction; they come to see that spark of understanding light up in their child's eyes. It’s the kind of place where a simple water table becomes a lesson in physics and a giant bubble maker feels like pure magic. The energy is infectious, with kids dashing from one brightly colored exhibit to the next, completely immersed in play. You leave feeling like you've spent an afternoon not just in a museum, but in a vibrant hub for young imaginations.
Collection Highlights
Kids can't get enough of the hands-on water play area or the chance to climb through a multi-story structure. The bubble station, where they can encase themselves inside a giant shimmering film, is always a crowd favorite.
