Golisano Childrens Museum of Naples

TIME : 2016/2/18 11:09:05

Designed by kids (and child psychologists) for kids, it's hardly surprising that this interactive children's museum is a big hit. At its center a trolley takes kids to different exhibits, including a virtual pond, where they can observe fish and growing water plants, and a produce market, where fruit and veg are sorted and sold to other kid 'customers.' Best of all is the Journey Through the Everglades with its boardwalk winding up into a 'tree' overlooking a mangrove maze of 20 pods. It has hands-on learning experiences, enhanced by light and sound installations signalling different day and night experiences.

The state-of-the-art building also incorporates the all-organic Garden Café.
