“Please do not touch the historical objects” makes sense to adults, but for children, it can feel like a barrier to fun in a museum setting—or at least, it seems that way at first. Many families, especially those with young children, faced this challenge during their visits to Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.
In collaboration with the Adult Learning and Interpretation Manager, we developed the Exploring at Vizcaya Activity Booklet to enrich the family experience at the museum. The project aimed to transform potential frustrations into opportunities for engagement by teaching Vizcaya’s art and history through games and exploration.
The process included multiple stages: conducting visitor surveys to understand family needs, researching family-focused programs at other museums, historic houses, and botanical gardens, and testing activities through trial and error. The outcome was transformative, shifting the narrative from “Mommy, I wanna go home” to “Can we stay five more minutes?”
This project not only enhanced the museum’s family programming but also demonstrated the power of blending education with play to create memorable experiences for visitors of all ages.
