Museum Experience for Family Learning
MUSEUM EXPERIENCE: CMOR IS MORE THAN A FUN PLACE TO PLAY INDOORS AND OUTDOORS (THOUGH IT'S DEFINITELY THAT!) - IT'S AN ACTIVE, INVOLVED OPPORTUNITY FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY TO GROW AND LEARN TOGETHER. FROM FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS TO SOCIALIZATION SKILLS, RESEARCH SHOWS THAT PLAY HAS A POSITIVE IMPACT ON A CHILD'S ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE - AND THE MORE OFTEN THEY ENGAGE IN PLAY AT AN ENVIRONMENT LIKE THE ONE SHARED AT CMOR, THE MORE LIKELY THEY ARE TO FIND SUCCESS INSIDE THE CLASSROOM. IN FY23, CMOR SAW TOTAL ATTENDANCE OF 287,833 GUESTS. THE MUSEUM CONTINUES TO REBUILD FROM THE DEVASTATING EFFECTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2022 – Jun 30, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$2MPlay-Based Education and Outreach
EDUCATION AND OUTREACH: PLAY IS A CRITICAL ELEMENT TO ENCOURAGE HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN, FOSTERING SKILLS THAT WILL STAY WITH THEM WELL INTO ADOLESCENCE AND ADULTHOOD. AT CMOR, CHILDREN'S GROWTH IS INSPIRED BY ENGAGING FAMILIES IN THE POWER OF PLAY, KNOWING THAT EVERYONE CAN LEARN MORE - AND DEVELOP MORE RAPIDLY - WHEN FAMILIES PLAY TOGETHER. OUR EXHIBITS AND EXPERIENCES FUEL CHILDREN'S PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS, MOTOR DEVELOPMENT SKILLS, LANGUAGE SKILLS, SPATIAL SKILLS AND COORDINATION, COMMUNICATION AND NEGOTIATION SKILLS, CREATIVE SKILLS, AND PRE-READING AND READING COMPREHENSION SKILLS.
