Curious George Comes to Discovery Cube Los Angeles

During our latest trip to Discovery Cube Los Angeles, we were very curious to explore one exhibit in particular. Curious George has made his way to LA and is now hanging around the Cube just waiting to visit with your family! But you've got to hurry - this exhibit is only around until January 3, 2016.

The latest exhibit to come to Discovery Cube LA is Curious George: Let's Get Curious!
There's so much to do, it's BANANAS! (See what I did there?)

My daughter and her friends (we love having play dates there) walked around from the apartment building, sidewalk produce brand, construction site, city park, space rocket, and the farm. There was dress up, a slide, chances to take photos with Curious George and even three holes of mini golf! Kaia's favorite part was designing her own building at the Construction Site! Stacking up the bricks and then loading them up on the conveyor belt was definitely a highlight for her. Maybe I have a future architect on my hands, huh?

I spent most of my time at the 'Museum inside the Museum.' On display is a fascinating arrangement of how the story of the monkey started including all about the author, the illustrator and the journey that George has taken. 

Did you know that Curious George was published in the United States in 1941. In the original story they were calling him "Fifi." That silly monkey soon became a worldwide success. Editions have appeared in many languages, with George given such names as Jorge, Zozo, Bingo, Nicke, Coco and Piete. I loved learning so much about one of my favorite childhood books.

 

Here's a closer look at the fun new exhibit that is great for kids of all ages!

Let's Get Curious at Discovery Cube Los Angeles

"Everyone's got a little Curious George in them." - Kathy Davis

Bring your children and their insatiable curiosity to Discovery Cube Los Angeles this fall for a new exhibit, Curious George: Let's Get Curious featuring everyone's favorite monkey!

"George is a little monkey, and all monkeys are curious. But no monkey is as curious as George."

Starting September 19, 2015 and going through January 3, 2016 families are welcome to exercise their curious minds while they explore the neighborhood where Curious George and The Man with the Yellow Hat live.

Guests can discover this new educational, hands-on exhibit featuring multiple areas just perfect for active and inquisitive children of all ages:

*Shoot three holes of Mini Golf

*Take care of animals at the Farm

*Get ready to blast off in the Space Rocket

*Design your own building at the Construction Site

Did you know that the authors of Curious George saved the manuscript during World War II. There's a lot more to learn about this curious little monkey and you can do it all at The Cube. This classic story has captured the heart of millions for 65 years and now thanks to Discovery Cube LA it will be introducing this historic little monkey to a new generation of kids.

I am really looking forward to seeing one of my my childhood literary favorites come to life and sharing it with my children. Stay tuned on my blog for the upcoming review and recap of this adorable exhibit.
