About Virginia Discovery Museum

The Virginia Discovery Museum is a museum JUST for kids! Yes, you read that right - it's all about hands-on fun, creativity, exprimentation and learning through play as this bright and colorful museum brings young children and families together!

During their time at the Virginia Discovery Museum, curious kids can explore the various exhibitis and attractions to engage minds, excite imaginations, and explore the world around them!

The Virginia Discovery Museum believe that play is learning; that learning should be fun; and that learning takes place in all aspects of our lives! We second that!

Kids can learn all about those STEM subjects as they tackle the flight lab, or experiment with the magnet wall.  There's a fun sensory studio, or it might be some quiet time in the literacy lounge that they might prefer!

The Virginia Discovery Museum follows a free-flowing, single-floor layout featuring two main galleries with 15 hands-on educational play areas spanning over 6,000 square feet!

Each exhibit is designed to engage kids in various areas including cognitively, physically, and socially, and all of the caring and attentive staff seek to foster an environment in which kids learn through exploratory and imaginative play and collaborative problem-solving.

Learning and fun are the goal. Creative play is the way!
