Permanent Exhibit
Crawlers' Corner
Crawlers’ Corner is a play space designed to support the development of MOXI’s earliest learners, ages 0 – 36 months. Inspired by nature and the wonders of the world around us, the exhibits encourage the development of gross motor skills, safe risk taking, problem solving, and early math concepts like counting, shapes, and patterns. Toddlers can climb, crawl, and balance through the Honeycomb Hollow, duck into the Crystal Cave, count to 10 at the Curiosity Cabinets, and recognize common shapes found in nature. Padded textures and textiles incorporate softness in this area to ensure safety through each child’s exploration.
