About Kids Discovery Station
Kids Discovery Station features indoor and outdoor exhibits where children engage in free play throughout the museum with all-day access. Visitors explore hands-on activities designed to spark curiosity through pretend-play experiences, including a junior doctor station and other imaginative role-play areas. The venue runs daily toddler programs Tuesday through Sunday, alongside recurring classes such as Young Artists Academy on Tuesdays and Science and Engineering Academy on Wednesdays, both held from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Sensory Play Mornings occur on the last Thursday of each month at 11:30 a.m., featuring changing themed sensory bins for toddlers. Summer camp runs Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., while birthday parties and field trips are available by arrangement. The museum sits at 350 W Yosemite Avenue in Merced. General admission is $7 per adult and child over 12 months old; children under 12 months receive free admission, according to kidsdiscoverystation.org.
