Papalote Museum is a children's space in Monterrey with five thematic zones covering the human body, Mexican nature, family and home, city life, and an ideas laboratory. The exhibits are designed mainly for hands-on learning and exploration.
The museum opened in Monterrey in 2010 as part of a network aimed at providing children with learning opportunities. It was one of the first spaces in the city designed specifically for young visitors.

The venue is easy to reach by car or public transportation and has adequate parking for families. Weekdays typically offer a less crowded experience compared to weekends and holidays.
