Explora: The Children's Museum

Explora: il Museo dei Bambini di Roma, is a hands-on interactive experience for kids, who may have some extra energy to burn after days of gelato and Renaissance art. The museum consists of a huge covered space dedicated to games and educational workshops, where under-12s can spend a couple of hours exploring animals, food, computers and more.
The most amazing attraction of Explora is the real simulation of how a city works, with the ability to perform odd jobs, be paid (virtual currency, of course!) and reinvest earnings in the reproduction of a supermarket, for gasoline and so on, all washed down with sections dedicated to plumbing, recycling and everything that can combine science and research to civil life.
A trip through the museum is set up in four sections, where young visitors are invited to experiment along the way, under the watchful eyes of the museum's guides. The museum's goals are to promote learning and understanding through activities, games and socialization.
The result is two hours of real fun for smart kids and their parents!
