Take the entire family out to the Bay Area Discovery Museum! This one-of-a-kind indoor and outdoor children's museum is located in Sausalito at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge and it serves over 315,000 visitors per year on its 7.5 acre campus. BADM is the only children's museum in the U.S. to be located in a national park, and our exhibits are admired and emulated by other children's museums nationwide.

BADM is recognized as the leading children's museum dedicated to developing childhood creativity, nurturing future generations of creative thinkers and innovators. With this emphasis on creativity through play, we encourage children ages 6 months to 8 years to develop into curious, creative, adventurous lifelong learners and explorers. The Museum's unique programs feature hands-on art, science and environmental exhibitions, performances, special events, cultural festivals and ongoing educational curricula... all with a focus on fun!
