The first exhibit at AMNH designed expressly for children ages 5 to 15, this 2,000 SF space introduces visitors to all the departments of the Museum and gives them a "behind-the-scenes" look at the Museum and its sciences.

Opened July 2001.

Children hunt for hidden creatures in the two-story replica of an African baobab tree, assemble the cast skeleton of a Prestosuchus, and dig for fossils in a recreation of a paleontology field site. Older children can track an earthquake anywhere in the world or search for asteroids.
