LAST CHANCE: The Holiday Create and Skate ends this weekend! Go sock skating, make festive holiday art, and explore the museum as a family!
🎉We did it! Last month, our community came together in a BIG way. Thanks to YOU, not only did we reach our goal, we exceeded all our fundraising expectations and raised over $21,000! Because of support from friends like you we’ll continue to provide educational enrichment opportunities for countless families. AND your gifts will help keep our admission costs affordable for all who wish to visit.
Thank you, and Happy New Year!
WHOO HOO, IT'S 2020! Thank you to all of our friends, supporters, visitors, members, and donors for a wonderful 2019. All of us at the Museum wish you and your families a very Happy New Year!
We're open today from 10am - 5pm. Come start your new year with some family fun! Amazing Sock Skating is open today.
#FunFactFriday: Millions of people across the United States every year watch the Ball Drop in Times Square, whether in-person or on television. How did this tradition start?
Well, the first drop was on Dec. 31, 1904 from the rooftop of One Times Square, spearheaded by The New York Times to celebrate their brand new headquarters in... you guessed it, Times Square! (It used to be called Longacre Square. Doesn't have the same ring, right?) Sailors used to use reference "time balls" to adjust their timepieces — they'd look to harbors to drop the ball at specific times. The Times decided to reimagine that concept for a city-wide end of the year party!
The first New Year's Eve Ball was 5 feet in diameter and weighed 700 pounds, decorated with 100 lightbulbs. The tradition really took off and has become quite the spectacle! The current ball, introduced in 2008, is 12 feet in diameter and weighs a whopping 11,874 pounds! Every year, there's a brand new pattern displayed on the ball.
🚨BREAKING: This is urgent. A generous donor is MATCHING all donations up to $15,000 in support of our museum! These gifts will have a lasting impact for our museum. But if we come up short, the reserves that support our day-to-day operating costs will run low, and we cannot let that happen. Help us secure the funds we need to keep admission costs affordable. Don’t wait! Make your tax-deductible, DOUBLED gift now: https://bit.ly/2sLvnGG

#FunFactFriday: This time of year, you find strings of lights every direction you look! Hung on trees, houses, stores, everywhere! But how do these lights turn on?
Light bulbs can turn electricity into light (and a bit of heat) – an expert explains how they do it.
Starting Saturday, Dec. 21, it's Amazing Sock Skating! Show off your craziest socks and take them for a spin on our iceless rink!

There's a #FullMoon tonight! The moon has had different monikers throughout history. According to the Algonquin tribes of the northern/eastern United States, the last full moon of the year is called the "Cold Moon." Europeans have called December full moons the "Oak Moon," the "Yule Moon," and the "Long Night Moon" (since it's close to the solstice). In Sri Lankan traditions, this full moon is the "Uduvapa Poya."
What do you call the moon?
Young readers ask: How did our moon get its name?
Come work with us! We're looking for outgoing and passionate folks who love working with kids and helping inspire creativity, curiosity, and lifelong learning.

We've been helping families create cherished memories since we opened in 1990. Isabella's family certainly knows this to be true. When Isabella was just nine years old, she would make a beeline to the Cornhusk Doll exhibit with her father in tow to make her very own doll — a doll she still has today! See for yourself why so many children and families come through our doors each day and leave with bright smiles.

Did you know that November is #NationalGratitudeMonth? Makes sense — Thanksgiving is all about gratitude and giving back! People who practice gratitude experience all sorts of positive effects in their lives like being kinder, sleeping better, feeling less stress and having fewer physical problems (such as pain).
Here are some tips to grow gratitude in kids from the The Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley!
How do children learn to be grateful? Child development research explores ways that we can support this process.
New from #MindsInBloom: "Invite the children in your life to participate in the kitchen and get them excited about the food they're about to share with friends and family!"
How to get your little ones involved in the kitchen!
We were so happy to welcome Google Local Guides to the museum yesterday! As part of their #LocalGuidesCleanTheWorld initiative, they helped us pick up litter and clean decorative cups on a chain link fence. From Italy to Pakistan to Kenya and more, these volunteers from across the world left their mark on the museum and San Jose. Thank you!
Happy Veterans Day! Did you know that this day used to be called Armistice Day? In honor of the military members who served in The Great War (World War I), Congress made Armistice Day a national holiday in 1926. November 11 was selected because of the armistice (truce) that ended the war on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918.
The holiday was renamed Veterans Day in 1954 to expand the scope and commemorate veterans who had fought in subsequent wars.
Armistice Day is also recognized internationally – you may have heard of it as Remembrance Day, observed in the United Kingdom, across Europe and in Commonwealth countries.
On Veterans Day, come enjoy time with your family at the museum.
#FunFactFriday: "When you throw a rock into a river, it pushes water out of the way, making a ripple that moves away from where it landed. As the rock falls deeper into the river, the water near the surface rushes back to fill in the space it left behind."
The simple experiment of throwing a rock into water actually reveals some fundamental rules of physics.
On Saturday, Oct. 5, our Hello from Japan! Exhibit Opens! Come visit Tokyo right here in San Jose at our exciting new fall exhibition and dress up in the kawaii style, sing karaoke, encounter kami spirits at a Shinto shrine, and mochi, mochi more!

New from #MindsInBloom: "Our newest installation, A Seat at the Table, was developed to encourage conversations between parents and children, using food and the different ways that we all prepare it as a connector."
In our new exhibit, everyone gets a seat at the table
"Play is active, not passive. And it turns out the way we learn is active, not passive. When we're sitting there like a couch potato we aren't learning as much as when we're doing."
We all want our kids to succeed, but that doesn't mean running math drills. Author Kathy Hirsh-Pasek explains the "six C's" that kids need to thrive and why raising brilliant kids starts with redefining brilliant.
!["When [kids] run around, their brains are getting a bubble bath of good neurochemicals, neurotransmitters and endorphins...](https://img.gluseum.com/2/safe_image.php?d=AQBrnHAhAzBf8wkS&url=https%3A%2F%2Fww2.kqed.org%2Fmindshift%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F23%2F2019%2F05%2FiStock-914552130-e1558506008317.jpg&_nc_hash=AQAUKp7e-TTwSFwm)
"When [kids] run around, their brains are getting a bubble bath of good neurochemicals, neurotransmitters and endorphins. These help memory and mood. A simple burst of exercise helps students focus better — to filter out what they do and do not need to pay attention to in class."
Exercising not only helps the body but it helps the brain. Schools are incorporating movement into the school day with activities like "The Daily Mile" to get kids active and prepared to learn.
#FunFactFriday: "Our brain is like a blind supercomputer; it’s very smart, but it can’t see. It’s just a really smart blob.
To figure out what it needs, our eyes tell our brain what the things around us look like. The problem is our eyes only know a handful of words to describe what they see."
Sometimes our brain gets confused and misunderstands what the eyes tell it.
