Are you ready for Kindergarten? This model classroom welcomes kids to take part in a typical Kindergarten experience while adults can ask staff “teachers” questions they may have about Kindergarten. Ride the bus to school, put your belongings in a backpack, and choose an activity that will help you practice going to Kindergarten!

When families work together to prepare a child for school, everybody knows more about what to expect and what to do to support their child. The Countdown to Kindergarten exhibit at Boston Children’s Museum provides a model classroom environment for young children and parents to explore together.

Would you like to bring a community group to the Museum to focus on Kindergarten readiness? The Museum has two different opportunities!
