Discovery Museum

The Discovery Museums will support the expansion of its partnership with Acre Family Child Care (AFCC) to better engage under-represented local immigrant communities. “Playing Together: Using Museum Fun to Better Engage Immigrant Communities” will offer a seasonal calendar of events that will more than double the number of programs available to AFCC’s providers and families. The project will also produce four science-themed workshop curricula designed for family daycare providers; a lending library of 18 science-themed kits with curricula translated in to Khmer, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Portuguese; and a model for a community preschool science fair. The Discovery Museums’ project will increase the role of curiosity, science, and play in the lives of young children.
