Marbles Kids Museum

Marbles Kids Museum is a building in North Carolina with multiple interactive areas for children to touch and explore. Spaces are divided into themes like science, creativity, and movement, helping children discover things through hands-on play.

The museum came from joining two earlier institutions in 2007 and combined their experience. This merger brought resources together to offer more children different ways of learning.

Visitors find spaces dedicated to science, engineering, and creative arts where children learn by exploring and touching exhibits. The building shows how education and play go together, inviting families to discover things in their own way.

Visitors should wear comfortable clothes since the visit involves lots of movement and exploring. It helps to come early in the day when it is less crowded, and plan enough time for playing.

A giant wall of stainless steel holds over a million marbles and fascinates visitors. This artistic installation catches the eye as soon as you walk in and inspired the museum's name.
