Curious George: LET'S Get curious!

Saturday, June 13, 2009 - Sunday, Sept. 27, 2009

Hold on to your yellow hat! In the summer of 2009, Creative Discovery Museum will present the hands—on traveling exhibit based on a treasured family favorite and most curious little monkey, Curious George™. Letting curiosity and inquiry be their guides, guests can explore familiar buildings and locales from the Curious George book series and television series on PBS KIDS in Curious George: Let's Get Curious! The exhibit presents key concepts in science, math, and engineering, which are woven and layered throughout the exhibit. Activities invite children to learn like George-through direct experience and problem solving!
