The Huntington

The Children's Garden encompassing approx. 30,000 square feet is a popular destination within the 120 acres Huntington Botanical Gardens. The Huntington is home to world-acclaimed art and artifacts as well as the internationally recognized Botanical Collections. 

 

Featuring several innovative interactive exhibits, the Garden provides "hands-on" experiences primarily for young children ages 2-8. In four separately themed areas exploring primary natural elements-air, water, earth, and fire, whimsical displays and playful interactives invite and engage children to better understand scientific principles related to their natural world.

 

Featuring evocative exhibits such as vortex water bells, pebble chimes, magnetic sand, and the prism tunnel, The Garden continues to mature and to capture the imaginations and to inspire Children in a dynamic, safe and beautiful learning environment.
