Imagination Playground Debuts During School Vacation @ The Children's Museum

Imagination Playground is a breakthrough playspace concept conceived and designed by renowned architect David Rockwell. It was developed to encourage child-directed, unstructured play - the kind of free play that experts say is critical to children's healthy development, and that Providence Children's Museum advocates for and promotes in its interactive play and learning environments.

With a focus on "loose parts" - an assortment of open-ended, movable objects - Imagination Playground stimulates kids' creativity and inspires them to invent their own ways to play. Children can shape their environment, move props around, work together to create imaginative structures, and make up their own stories, rules and games.

Museum visitors can join a week-long block party in celebration of Imagination Playground from Monday, April 16 to Sunday, April 22, then explore the blocks on weekends through June. Imagination Playground is free with $8.50 Museum admission; always free for Museum members.
