In Tot Spot, little visitors can explore, create, and discover the world of science while doing what they do best—playing. Children ages 6 and younger and their grown-ups can “Make It Go” with the train, coal car, and depot; “Make It Flow” (and squirt and bubble) in the huge water play area; and “Make it Blow” through giant tubes filled with sparkles, balls, and fluff. Junior engineers can move materials with a kid-powered crane, create their own gravity ball maze, and build structures of all sizes. Kid and parents can step through the porch of Ginny’s House for family role-play fun that even includes working on the car in the attached garage! Baby Spot, for our littlest learners, lets toddlers and infants engage their senses with specially designed toys in a space all their own.
Children take the lead in creating, imagining and learning through different venues that rotate through the Tot Spot role-playing area during the year.
Discovery Center Museum asks that all young visitors to Tot Spot be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
