KidZone Museum





The KidZone Museum is a children's museum in Truckee, California serving 22,000+ visits annually. Our mission is to inspire learning through creative play and discovery.
We exsist so children can learn through play and to inspire curiosity and create a life-long love of learning through exploration and discovery. Steve Jobs said,""The elements of discovery are all around you...... through exploration and learning one could understand seemingly very complex things in one's environment. My childhood was very fortunate in that way."
We can't say it better than Steve Jobs or the many researchers who say children need imaginary, exploratory play, in order to become the problem solving engineers of the future. Plus play makes us all super happy!
Awards
KidZone Museum recieved the 2011 MetLife and Association of Children's Museum Promising Practice Award for our KidsReach program.
Here at the Museum we are committed to creating a Green-Zone for you and your children. The philosophy of Green-Zone complements our whole child philosophy of health and well being. By using tried and true non-toxic EPA recommended cleaning products, we are creating a clean space to play, with good air quality, not compromising your child's immune, nervous or endocrine system - as some cleaners are proven to do. We will also be protecting the environment from any further harm, ensuring a healthier world for your child and grandchildren. We clean and sanitize daily and hang a board at the Museum with the last time each area was cleaned.
