Our local Rock Climbing Wall teaches children the basics of rock climbing and bouldering, as they climb hand-over-hand across a rock face. Seek and find animals in the giant mural to see what our local unique ecosystem, the Pine Barrens, has hidden. The Rock Climbing Wall is sponsored by My Gym of Cherry Hill.
Check-Up, provided by Cooper Children's Regional Hospital, provides children with a place to learn about their bodies through a visit to the doctor's office. Peer through a giant eyeball, stop at the listening station, examine a baby or test surgical skills on a giant Museum version of Operation.
The DINOSAURIUM is a tribute to south Jersey's role in dinosaur discovery! The first dinosaur was discovered less than 8 miles from the Museum in Haddonfield, NJ. Climb inside the skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus rex. Dig for bones in the excavation site. Explore the scientists' tent and roar like one of the great prehistoric beasts.
Down the Shore takes children on a familiar adventure, where they can learn about the wonders of southern New Jersey - whether it's fishing for flounder from a boat, exploring life under the sea, or climbing aboard a lifeguard's chair. The exhibit keeps visitors beach-bound all year long.
The GET FIT exhibit home to The FLYERS Mini-Rink, sponsored by the Philadelphia FLYERS. Visitors can work on their hockey skills, be the commentator in the press box, or watch a championship game in this tiny replica of the FLYERS home rink. A Museum favorite, indoor basketball court, also occupies this space where families can exercise gross motor skills and develop coordination. The basketball court is sponsored by DeShayes Residential Resort Designs.
Channel 6 Action News Studio provided by WPVI gives children the chance to sit behind a news desk or stand in front of the weather map to report on important stories of the day or forecast the weather. A real kid-operated camera captures the reporters at work and broadcasts it "live" to several locations throughout the Museum.
Little Discoveries Baby Barnyard is a safe, creative space designed exclusively for children under 4 years of age. We love to watch our visitors grow as they are developing skills such as sorting and matching or climbing and sliding down a giant tube slide. Parents are encouraged to play along with their children as they explore the barn and farm house, jump into the pig pen, and feed the horses carrots. Every week is a new discovery and new advancements for our littlest visitors. The Rocking Horse Barn is sponsored by Chick-Fil-A Eastgate and the Retro Farmhouse is sponsored by Just Mom and Me at the Moorestown Mall.

Vet and Pet helps children explore how to care for household and exotic pets. Light tables are available to examine animal X-rays, make a diagnosis through the microscope, perform surgery on a stuffed bunny, stethoscopes can help kids figure out what has happened to the stuffed animal patients, and an examination table helps kids bandage hurt paws, ears, scales and tales. All these things help them imagine what it would like to be a veterinarian. Sponsored by Animal and Bird Health Care Center.
