Museu da Vida, Community museum in Curitiba, Brazil
Museu da Vida is a museum in Curitiba with six indoor exhibitions and two outdoor recreation areas designed for family learning. The spaces feature hands-on activities and interactive stations that visitors can explore at their own pace.
The museum was founded in 2014 as an initiative of Pastoral da Criança to document its work with communities. It preserves more than 30 years of history from an organization dedicated to supporting children and families.
The museum displays the work of Dr. Zilda Arns Neumann and Pastoral da Criança, a grassroots movement dedicated to child and family welfare. You can see how this initiative operates across different regions and what impact it has on local communities.
Entry is easier to access for students, seniors, and children who receive reduced rates. Public school groups can enter free on Wednesdays when arranged in advance.
The outdoor areas include water slides, trampolines, and ball pits for play, mixing learning with genuine fun. This combination makes it an unusual place where entertainment and education truly merge.
