Donate

Donate and be part of our vital work to deliver exceptional learning through play opportunities for young children and their families in Utah and the intermountain west.

Offering informal education for over 25,000 school children annually as well as providing unique exhibits and programs to more than 250,000 guests each year, we believe there is a program and opportunity for every child to create, learn, and play together at our museum.
