## About

Throughout the holiday season, the Boston Children's Museum transforms into 'Snowmazing!', an interactive indoor wonderland where kids can dive into seasonal winter fun regardless of the weather outside. The crown jewel is the famous Sock Skating Rink—a smooth synthetic ice floor where children slide, spin, and glide in their stocking feet without the chill or heavy skates. Kids can also construct snowy forts and igloos using giant soft foam blocks in the Winter Play Space.

The museum's Art Studio hosts daily paper snowflake crafting, clay ornament modeling, and winter storytimes. Photo ops abound at the vintage 1800s horse-drawn wooden sleigh and glowing crystalline light installations. On New Year's Eve, the museum hosts 'Happy NOON Year!', featuring kid-friendly midday countdowns and confetti bursts so little ones can celebrate without staying up until midnight. Timed admission tickets and stroller parking on the ground floor make visits stress-free.
