Rome for Children


EXPLORA THE CHILDREN'S MUSEUM OF ROME

Explora il Museo dei Bambini di Roma, a non profit organization, is the first Italian children's museum,
primarly designed for children, school and families.

It is located on via Flaminia 82, next to the historical center of Rome, not far from Piazza del Popolo, 
at the foot of Villa Borghese public park. 

Explora is a child-sized playtown where everything can be observed, touched and experimented with. 
Visitors come into contact with facts, phenomena and everyday events: environment, communication, 
economy and new technologies. 
Children are offered the opportunity to discover the mystery of how things function through observation,
touch and experiments, with the help of facilitators.
