In honor of Mother’s Day, the Children’s Museum of New
Hampshire is offering free admission for all mothers and grandmothers on
Sunday, May 13, from 12 to 5 p.m. There will also be a special creative beading
activity for children who visit on Mother’s Day. Kids can make a sparkly
bracelet or necklace to give as a gift to the special woman in their lives.
This activity is included with paid admission ($9 each for children and adults)
and free for Children’s Museum members. Dads and grandfathers will get their
turn to play free on Father’s Day, June 17.
The Children’s Museum of New Hampshire is located at 6
Washington Street in Dover and offers two levels of custom-created exhibits for
hands-on family learning. Children can explore a wide range of subjects, from
dinosaurs, music and aeronautics to world cultures, art and natural history.
Open year-round, the museum works closely with schools, social service agencies
and educators to develop relevant programming and provide access for all. The
museum also hosts a variety of live performances, workshops, classes and
special events for families. For more information, please call the museum at
