Children's Museum Tucson

Tucson Children’s Museum will implement a structured educational program for preschoolers and their parents or caregivers in southern Arizona. The museum’s early childhood program will use best practice recommendations by leading coalitions on early learning, local experts, staff and museum resources, and community partnerships to create programming that will increase and improve school readiness factors in preschool children. Components include weekly programs, activities, exhibit enhancements, new tours focused on preschool learning standards, development of Web and print curriculum materials, and a formal evaluation. Free programming will be available to participants in low-income neighborhoods.
