HOW WE MAKE AN IMPACT
As the state’s only children’s museum, the
Delaware Children’s Museum offers exhibits
and rotating programming and events that
teach children the power of playful learning.
The museum uses STREAM (Science,
Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art,
Mathematics) education to help children
reach their full potential. We pride ourselves
in our accessibility to all, offering programs
providing free and discounted admission for
families and school groups in under-served communities.
GIVING OPPORTUNITIES
 The Delaware Children’s Museum relies heavily on contributed revenue
to cover their operating budget. Without sponsorship of our activities,
DE Children’s
programming and special events, the museum could not keep its doors open.
We welcome sponsors and partners for all of our STREAM programs, monthly special events, and reduced and free admission initiatives.
