Jewish Children's Museum Tours

The Basics
Children discover famous biblical stories, learn about Jewish traditions and customs, and dive into Jewish history through the museum’s exhibitions. Kids get hands-on and interact, whether it's by climbing on a gigantic Shabbat table, shopping at a kosher supermarket, taking part in a cooking class in the kosher kitchen, or discovering traditional handicrafts in a shtetl holiday village. Other activities include a 6-hole miniature golf course, a rock climbing wall, and a games gallery.
