Kids Gallery Opening at the Surrey Museum

Kids in Surrey BC now have their own gallery at the Surrey Museum, where they can climb, ride, and play in this fully interactive exhibit…

Kids Learn while they Explore and Play

I don’t usually think to bring my kids to a museum for an afternoon of play.

But the Surrey Museum, located in Cloverdale, is looking to change that for families in the Lower Mainland of BC.

This week, I took my daughter, Olivia, and Susan’s daughters, Julia and Sophia, to test out the new Kids Gallery before the Grand Opening this Saturday.

Our girls had a blast learning as they played their way through the new exhibit which allows kids to explore the world of sustainable energy from their point of view.

Since we were there during an early showing, Joytv happened to be there shooting a segment for an upcoming episode of Fraser Focus.

The girls were thrilled to wear GoPros and have cameras and reporters follow them around the gallery while they explored.

They had so much fun they can’t wait to go back in the spring when the Kids Gallery will switch exhibits and feature a new learning theme.

My eight year old niece, Sophia, told me, “I want to go back every time they have a new exhibit.”

I asked the girls what they liked best about the gallery and they listed everything from being able to “touch things” to the “light bulbs” to the “tree house” to the “play kitchen” to the “garbage can display” to “making crafts”…
