The pilot program, Morning at the Museum (MAM), was offered to children (ages 3-5) and their caregivers weekly for six weeks at the Reynolda House Museum of American Art (RHMAA). Both children and adults explored RHMAA through hands-on activities that encouraged play, movement, observation, music, and art-making. Each session explored a theme (shapes, color, farm, etc.), woven into sensory play, the featured artwork of the day, story time, spaces in the historic house, and an art-making experience. Through MAM, RHMAA used educationally defined ingredients to create a developmentally appropriate learning experience spanning two age groups, young children and adults, with the goal of fostering a lifelong interest in museum learning and attendance.
