Museo Infantil, Children's museum in Quinta Normal Park, Santiago, Chile.
The museum occupies the Obrecht House, offering interactive exhibits and educational spaces designed specifically for children aged 2 to 13 years old.
The building, completed in 1875, was initially the residence of French astronomer Jean Albert Obrecht Hubert who worked at the National Astronomical Observatory.
The museum collection displays a range of vintage toys, including dolls, cars, trains, and lead soldiers that represent Chilean childhood through different periods.
The museum remains closed since the February 2010 earthquake, with the nearest access point being the Quinta Normal metro station.
In 1993, the museum enhanced its educational approach by adding interactive rooms where children can engage with scientific experiments and demonstrations.
