As the winner of the 2010 National Medal for Museum and Library Service, there’s no question about the stellar attributes of Albuquerque's Explora Science Center and Children’s Museum. Most of Explora's exhibits are tabletop sized to suit the kids, but you don’t have to be a tot to appreciate them. You just have to have a childlike sense of wonder. Interactive exhibits will give you a hands-on experience with a wide variety of subjects. Build a dam or a maze at the water exhibit, experiment with sound, make art out of recycled materials, build a pulley system, or do a chemistry experiment. The Explora Science Center and Children's Museum is suitable for toddlers through adults. Explora is open Mondays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sundays 12 p.m. – 6 p.m.
