Come Play with Us
Kidspace is a special kind of museum, designed especially for children and the families who love them. It’s a space that fuels ideas and rewards curiosity, where children play, create, explore, invent, paint, dance, build, climb, stomp, and splash.
So Many Ways to Play!
Our beautiful 3.5 acre campus near the historic Rose Bowl features more than 40 hands-on exhibits for children ages 1-10. Outdoor spaces invite children to climb into a giant hawk’s nest, build a fort for backyard campouts, create ooshy-gooshy mud pie masterpieces, and splash and play in our naturalistic water features. In the indoor galleries, children can peek into an active beehive, create and invent in Imagination Workshop, explore a giant ant tunnel, and test their courage in our challenging climbing towers.
Featured Exhibits
Arroyo Adventure
Bring a change of clothes and a towel! We love it when kids get messy playing outdoors. Arroyo Adventure offers creative and kinetic experiences with nature.
Trike Tracks
At our popular Trike Tracks, we put kids in the driver's seat on a twisty mini-highway, and the destination is maximum fun! Try individual or two seater trikes, perfect for those backseat drivers!
Physics Forest
Physics Forest puts science into motion with 12 hands-on, interactive exhibits that explore concepts such as levers and pulleys, trajectory, and momentum.
Imagination Workshop
Imagination Workshop is a space to build, create, repurpose, and tinker with a variety of materials. Our daily family programs pose creative challenges to ignite imagination and inspire ingenuity. Just imagine what you can make!
Ant Tunnel
Don't forget to use your antennae (or your hands) to navigate this dark, winding tunnel into the realm of the ants. You may spot members of the ant colony, as well as ant eggs, on your subterranean journey. Then climb up into the canopy of our 17-foot leaf climber.
Rope Bridge
It's wobbly, but it's strong! The Incas built rope suspension bridges over canyons and gorges strong enough to support a caravan of llamas! This one is built to hold kids, daddies and mamas.
