Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum

The Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum offers a fun interactive visit with plenty to explore for all ages.

In August 2021 they opened STEAM Park, a brand new exhibit designed with Toyota Engineers.

The Preschool Gallery is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers to explore balls, water, and climbing. My teen was thrilled to take her cousin to this section to visit Engineers on a Roll which opened a few years after she aged out of the Preschool Gallery. Since the gallery is just for kids ages 4 and under, it is a great place for toddlers and preschoolers to escape the big kids.

Another favorite is Block Party, which was supposed to be a temporary display in 2011 and proved so popular that it is still around today. Over the years they have replaced the blocks a couple of times eventually moving to a stiffer foam.
