CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS
There are many ways for children to enjoy the Museum and take part in the fun! From group trips to daily activities, there is always something for our youngest visitors to engage in.
ACTIVITIES AT THE LIBRARY
Stop by our education center in the Library and Archives for activities and worksheets for families and children of all ages to enjoy! Show your creativity with our Breed of the Month craft and learn about different breeds of furry friends! From coloring pages to ceramic dog models, there is much inspiration to be drawn from in the Library!
PAWS TO READ
Take time this summer at the Museum to read! Paws to Read is a great way to spark interest in reading at an early age, while preparing children for group activities at school in the fall. Children will listen to a story and make a craft relating to the book of the week.
Drop in each week for a new book and craft the whole summer! Paws to Read is free with the cost of admission and geared towards children 4-6 years old, but all are welcome!
Opportunities for Schools
Out of courtesy to our neighbors, only service dogs and invited demonstration dogs are allowed in the museum.
