This is the Kids Creative Lab’s online “Secret Hideout in Our Home” 3-month series! The setting for “Secret Hideout at Home” is right where you are right now. You’ll create things using everyday items, move your body, and conduct experiments. Our goal is to enrich and transform everyone’s daily lives through these workshops and your own “exploration.”

Children are artists. They freely create using the various materials and tools displayed at the “Museum Just for Kids.” The works themselves, the materials before they become works, the passing of time, and the movements that emerge—these are the essence of this museum. What will you discover today? What can you do…? No matter when or how often you visit, this is a space for play and learning that sparks that sense of excitement. *We are implementing thorough COVID-19 prevention measures, such as limiting capacity to about half of the usual number. Please check the website below for details.
