Discover what harvest time was like through the eyes of the families who lived in Wenham Museum's Claflin-Gerrish-Richards House in the 17th - 19th centuries.

M is for Museum is a first museum experience combining early literacy with observation skills and socialization.

Recommended for children ages 2.9 and up.

The Wenham Museum is a family-friendly museum of childhood and family life located on Boston’s North Shore since 1922.

Visitors delight in the museum’s 10 model train layouts that operate at the push of a button, a world-renowned doll collection, vintage dollhouses, a costume and textile collection, antique toys, historic photographs and the 17th century Claflin-Gerrish-Richards House.

Changing exhibits and family-friendly programming celebrate childhood, connect generations and honors local heritage.

Visit www.wenhammuseum.org or www.facebook.com/wenhammuseum for family-friendly exhibitions and related programming that changes throughout the year.
