Because they have to stand on tippy toes to see the paintings in the other museums, and you get in trouble if you touch, there's Habitot Children's Museum.  Have fun with a Family Pass.

East Bay’s Hands-on Discovery Museum

for Young Children and Their Families

Award-Winning Children’s Museum

Habitot Children's Museum was founded by parents and educators in 1992 to meet the unique needs and interests of infants, toddlers and preschoolers in a safe and appropriate community setting. Habitot opened its first facility in downtown Berkeley in 1998, after six years of community outreach and fundraising. Habitot's Mission Habitot's History

Habitot Children’s Museum has become the most popular and award-winning children’s hands on discovery museum in the East Bay. Habitot founders have created a hands-on play and learning center where young children are the ‘big kids’ -- exploring the arts and culture in a safe setting designed especially for small hands and bodies and growing minds.
