Jewish History Comes Alive at Brooklyn’s Jewish Children’s Museum

The largest Jewish-themed children’s museum in the country, the Jewish Children’s Museum is a unique institution where children and their parents – from all segments of the community – can explore Jewish history and heritage in a stimulating and interactive environment.

With hands-on exhibits focusing on Jewish holidays, biblical history, the land of Israel, contemporary Jewish life and more, the Jewish Children’s Museum celebrates and explores many aspects of Jewish culture. Through innovative multi-media technology, Jewish history, values and traditions come to life at the Museum.

The museum’s third floor is dedicated to “Exploring Jewish Life.” Children can stock up on kosher products with scaled-down shopping carts, artificial food, working scales and checkout scanners in the Kosher Supermarket, climb through a giant Challah in the life size Shabbat room, create a “Get Well” card to be delivered to the children’s hospital and step back in time to explore the Jewish Holidays.

In the “Voyage through Jewish History”, young visitors can travel from Abraham and Sarah’s tent to the Kotel in Jerusalem and place a prayer in the wall. Activities along the way include giving water to Rebecca’ s camels, playing the strings on David’s harp (a high-tech version with beams of light that emit sounds when struck) and tracing the exodus from Egypt and the giving of the Torah through the Sinai Peninsula.

This Chol Hamoed Pesach, Bubble Master Jeff Boyer who has been entertaining audiences around the world with his mesmerizing, engaging, and exciting act, will be performing live at the Jewish Children’s Museum! Bubble volcanos, bubble roller coasters, kids inside giant bubbles…it’s all part of the fun in this bubble bonanza.

The Jewish Children’s Museum is located at 792 Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn. Tickets can be purchased online at www.JCM.museum or by calling 718-907-8833. General Admission for adults and children ages 2+ is $13, Combo: Admission & Show is $15, and includes all activities.
