The Bronx Children's Museum has quickly become a staple for family fun and an educational experience for kids to learn more about their city.

"We're excited that we're a new summer destination to families in our area," says Denise Adusei, executive director of the museum. "We have a safe, fun space for kids to explore, and we invite all of the children from the Bronx or outside of the Bronx to come and get to know our community."

The museum offers replicas that mirror the streets of the Bronx and exhibits that showcase just how creative the borough truly is.

Visitors can even meet friends like Pelham, the three-toed box turtle!
