Here children can touch and explore objects that elsewhere in the Museum are protected by glass cases. A child can see the world through the lens of a microscope, discover treasures in a sandpit, have a bird's eye view of a colony of ants, feel a whale's tooth, and so much more!

All activities are aimed at foundation phase learners, and are offered in English or Afrikaans. Activities relating to the displays in the Museum are enhanced by interaction with specimens in the Discovery Room.
