But it’s more than that, too. As one of the oldest and most influential children’s museums in the world, BCM is a civic landmark, a living laboratory for early learning, and a global leader in child development.Founded in 1913 at the forefront of the progressive education movement, BCM helped shape modern ideas of child-centered, experiential learning. For more than a century, the Museum has enriched the lives of millions of children, caregivers, and educators—and continues to influence how our society understands what it means for children to learn and thrive.Through its four-part operating model—working in the Museum, in schools, in communities, and in homes—BCM reaches more than 500,000 children and caregivers each year with our exhibits, family-friendly programs, learning kits, curricula, professional development, and playgroups. These resources are especially focused on expanding access in historically marginalized communities; over 30% of BCM visitors attend with free or reduced admission.One of only a handful of collecting children’s museums in the world, BCM activates its 30,000-object collection across programs and exhibitions to spark meaningful reflection across generations. Whether it’s a school group in the STEAM Lab, a playgroup in a rural part of the state, or a family exploring with their young child for the first time in our PlaySpace exhibit, BCM’s experiences are backed by research, shaped by community voices, and designed to help children thrive.BCM is building a more joyful, equitable future—one child, one family, and one playful moment at a time.
