About Bay Area Discovery Museum, Sausalito, CA
A museum made for kids! Designed for curious minds ages 0-8. 7.5 acres of indoor and outdoor exploration in Fort Baker National Park. Take in breathtaking views of the San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge. Join daily programs like Storytime, music and STEAM activities.
Located at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge on 7.5 acres of National Park land, the Bay Area Discovery Museum provides STEM-focused, inquiry-driven experiences that develop creativity and conceptual thinking, critical components of problem solving that are too often missing from early childhood education. They also serve as a resource for the broader community by providing information, models, training, and resources for educators and families.
All of the BADM’s programs and exhibitions are research-backed through their research division, the Center for Childhood Creativity (CCC). The CCC launched in 2011 to bridge the gap between academic research in the fields of neuroscience, education, psychology, and creativity studies with the practitioners charged with raising a generation of future innovators.
Their mission is to transform research into early learning experiences that inspire creative problem solving.
