The Sacramento Children's Museum (SCM) is the perfect field trip destination for your class!
We invite you and your students to experience an environment specifically tailored to their learning and developmental needs. Studies confirm that while children play in children's museums, observable and quantifiable learning takes place. From simple cause and effect, to fine motor skills, to informational and procedural learning, our exhibits and programs are designed to engage children in simple and complex forms of play that result in foundational learning. A field trip to the Sacramento Children's Museum sparks lifelong learning through the power of play!
