Discovery Place Kids Huntersville

Discovery Place Kids-Huntersville is the ultimate children’s museum that allows young minds to be creative and explore their world through hands-on STEM learning.

Discover why countless families choose us as their go-to place for fun-filled, interactive experiences that encourage curiosity, creativity and a lifelong love of learning. With our carefully curated exhibits and engaging programs, we provide a stimulating environment that fosters growth and development in young children.

Sensory-friendly hours are now monthly and will continue on the first Sunday of every month from 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

We’ve crafted these low-sensory hours for children with sensory sensitivities and special needs to enjoy the Museum’s hands-on exhibit spaces and explore in a calmer, quieter environment.

We invite all children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Sensory Processing Disorders and vision or hearing impairments and their caregivers to interact with our experiences.

During your visit to the Museum, families can check out sensory backpacks with noise-canceling headphones, sensory-friendly toys and manipulatives.

*Backpacks are available on a first-come, first-served basis, with limited supplies. This experience is included in Museum Admission.
