Little kids must wonder -- where do all the recyclables from home go?
At Habitot, the special needs and interests of infants, toddlers and young children are met in a space designed exclusively for them. Each of the museum's small-scale exhibits and galleries creates a context for learning, accessible to children with different learning styles. Exhibits have been designed to encourage parent-child interactions and they emphasize hands-on, multi-sensory learning. As much as possible, the exhibits reflect the ethnically-diverse, prosperous and environmentally-sensitive Bay Area community in which we live.
