Explore the Ability in Disability!
Award-winning exhibit was created by Boston Children’s Museum especially for children and their families. Featuring hands-on activities and real, personal stories, access/ABILITY inspires visitors of all ages to discover how we each engage with the world in our own unique ways.
Six different exhibit areas include:
Going Places, where you’ll get to try out a wheelchair obstacle course and a Multisensory City Walk.
Talk With Me, where you can learn phrases in American Sign Language, type your name in Braille, and communicate using pictures.
Just For Fun!, where you can try a hand-pedaled bike and create art that you can experience through sight, touch, and sounds.
Think About It, where you can test your attention and memory skills and find out what kind of smart you are.
Invent It, where you can experience a design challenge, see how there is more than one way to do something, and learn how things can be designed to work for the greatest number of people.
Resource Area, where you can learn more through books and on-line resources.
Join us for this family-friendly adventure, and learn about how people with disabilities navigate our world!
