"Babies don’t simply learn they should try harder at everything. Just like grownups, babies make rational decisions about effort."
Persistence and self-control are valuable traits that can help kids succeed in school and beyond. A new study suggests infants can learn stick-to-itiveness by watching adults persist in a difficult task.
"The idea that ice is slippery because of water on its surface had been around for a long time but wasn’t convincingly proved until 1987. And while that may seem like a very long time ago to a 4-year-old, I assure you that this date is recent enough that many grown-ups are still coming to terms with the idea that the current year is not 1988."
The questions that kids ask about science aren’t always easy to answer. Sometimes, their little brains can lead to big places that adults forget to explore. Tha…
"Exercise supports our ability to think creatively, make decisions, focus and retrieve key information."
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.
"Mister Rogers' Neighborhood focused on one audience: preschoolers. And for good reason. Today, increasing evidence points to the importance of early childhood education. Its impact can be felt decades down the road — in adults' education levels, incomes, even health."
The popular film this summer shows how the topics — and the format — Fred Rogers brought to TV are as relevant to education and child development as they ever were.
Happy #FourthOfJuly! In celebration of the 243rd anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, people all over the country are going to see fireworks tonight. But why are fireworks such an integral part of #IndependenceDay festivities?
Short answer: Because John Adams wanted it so.
Long answer: Fireworks have been tied to July 4th since 1777, just one year after the Declaration was signed, when Philadelphia citizens organized the first official commemorative celebration. That night, they set off 13 fireworks in honor of the 13 colonies.
Then-Massachusetts delegate to the first Continental Congress John Adams wrote to his wife, "I am apt to believe that [Independence Day] will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival... It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more."
July 4, 1777 was during the Revolutionary War, which would not end until September 3, 1783 (when the Treaty of Paris was signed). Most historians agree that this early tradition of remembering and honoring the Fourth of July was in an effort to keep spirits up during a long and exhaustive war, and to instill national pride in the fledgling country.
Enjoy the fireworks tonight! You are part of this history, just as John Adams envisioned.
We're thrilled to have received Palo Alto Humane Society's Community Partner of the Year award. Heidi Lubin, Visual Arts Program Developer and Jessica Torres, Associate Director of Education represented us at the PAHS ceremony.

"We should begin to green our educational provision – and our own backyards and schoolyards are certainly a good place to begin."
This week is #MudWeek at the Museum! Join us to shape, squish, and splatter mud in Bill's Backyard. Be sure to bring a change of clothes!
New research has shown that living near green spaces can improve children's cognitive development.
Happy July! A new month means new activities in our program spaces. In Bill's Backyard, use natural watercolors made from vegetables and flowers to paint a masterpiece. For our 4 and under crowd, explore the beauty of ice as it transforms with rock salt and watercolor paints in the Wonder Cabinet Art Studio. The Art Loft is currently closed, but reopens July 19 with art inspired by Expressionist painters. Come and create! #PurpleMuseumCreations
"As paradoxical as it sounds, boredom is interesting! When we get bored, our minds begin to wander. And when our minds wander, remarkable things happen. Our brains begin making surprising connections."
Why we should all strive to be bored every once in a while
Shape, squish, and splatter! It’s time to get dirty during #MudWeek! International Mud Day on June 29 will kick off a whole week of exciting mud play. Bring a change of clothes!

#ICYMI: "As the world becomes increasingly diverse, your children will meet people from many different types of families. Children and communities thrive best when members strive to get along and understand each other — and most importantly, respect one another."

Join us this summer for Music Fun Under the Sun!

In addition to being the first day of summer, today is also #NationalSelfieDay! For as long as humans have been making art, we have been making it in our own image. If you think selfies are a millennial invention, you underestimate just how much we have loved and documented our own visages over the course of history.
So we're taking the opportunity to share some of our favorite historical selfies. Click through the gallery, and feel free to share your own!
#FunFactFriday: Buckle up y'all, it's going to be a loooooooong day. Longest one of the year, in fact! Happy summer solstice!
In addition to marking the first day of summer, the summer solstice gives those of us in the Northern Hemisphere the most minutes of sunlight of any day of the year. The term "solstice" comes from the Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still) because on this day, the sun's relative position in the sky doesn't keep advancing northward, but appears instead to stand still. (The rest of the year, the tilt of the Earth's axis makes it so that the sun's path rises and falls differently one day to the next.)
Today, the sun will rise at its easternmost point, and set at its westernmost point, so you'll see sunlight in places you may never have noticed before. The world will be illuminated in a different way!
Join us on SATURDAY, JUNE 22 for Proud of My Family! This annual event is a celebration of all types of families, especially LGBTQ+ parents, relatives, and friends.
Come move and groove in the Rainbow Dance Zone, make rainbow art of all kinds, and paint with the colors of the Pride flag on our new temporary art installation.
A great big THANK YOU to the VMware volunteers who spent their Friday afternoon with us doing unglamorous museum maintenance, like mulching our native garden and washing our Imagination Playground big blue blocks! We ❤️ volunteers!

Kids of all ages naturally follow the scientific process as they learn about the world. They ask questions, fixate on their chosen topic, make guesses about why things work the way they do, and test those hypotheses. But sometimes they stumble on the path to forming their conclusions. Here’s five ways to cultivate your child’s perseverance.
5 Ways to Help Build Your Child’s Perseverance
Happy June! A new month means new activities in our program spaces! In the Art Loft, pick up a brush and help us paint our new art installation with all the colors of the rainbow.

Come and create! #PurpleMuseumCreations
Are you going to the Silicon Valley Jewish Music Festival, hosted by our friends at the APJCC in Los Gatos? We'll be there with a fun activity: solar cooking! Join us for a fun and kid-friendly day of music, food, nature activities, and more!
Enjoy live music, food, and family activities at this annual festival on the JCC field. This year’s theme will be camping and there will be song circles around an artificial campfire in between the headlining bands that will perform on the main stage.
We had so much fun wrapping up our "Happy Trails" program that helps urban families gain skills, comfort, and confidence in exploring nature. We didn't let a little rain stop our Nature Festival last Saturday. Program participants and museum visitors created nature journals, identified tracks, examined pelts and learned how to support pollinators by making their own Air Bee & Bee. The program launched last fall and was made possible by generous grants from Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority and Applied Materials

Discovery Duck has gone for a bath this summer, and we're excited that our new friend Sid is here! Come visit our new summer exhibit, Sid the Science Kid: The Super-Duper Exhibit!
Opens Saturday, May 25
Sid the Science Kid: The Super-Duper Exhibit! was created by The Magic House® in collaboration with The Jim Henson Company.
A big shout-out for the KPMG volunteer "green team" for grabbing hoes, rakes and shovels and helping us spruce up the exterior of our outdoor space, Bill's Backyard. We're so happy, we're "greening" from ear to ear.
#FunFactFriday: "For a sound to bounce back and make an echo, there has to be a lot of space between the sound source and the thing (wall or mountain) that it hits and bounces back."
When a sound is made, it spreads. And when it hits a hard surface that is far away, it bounces back and comes back to where the sound was made. That's what we call an echo.
"If we want kids to be curious about math outside the classroom, we need to take math off the page and into the real world."
Here are some activities and conversation starters that can help kids find math all around them.
"Children have a curiosity about the world that leads them to question almost everything around them. So what should you do if you don’t know the answer?"
But, why?
"Even though none of us can actually go back in time, we can take these lessons and apply them to how we interact with young people currently experiencing their own journey with science."
What sparked their curiosity, and what experiences threatened to put out that flame? The answers might be somewhat unexpected

Miss any of our favorite #ChildrensBookWeek memories? Don't worry – we rounded them up for you! What are some of the children's books you love?
Check out some of our childhood favorites that have stayed with us into adulthood
“When I was young, I loved all Roald Dahl’s stories, but ‘The BFG’ always stood out to me as a favorite. It was the perfect mix of absolute silliness with some scary moments sprinkled in too. It’s also one of the books I remember my mom reading to my sister and me as we got a little older. It’s a scrumdiddlyumptious read for kids and adults both!” — Christine Thalls, Urban Ecology Program Developer

Happy 100th anniversary of Children's Book Week! This children's literacy initiative celebrates the books that shape lifelong readers. Here at the Museum, we see how much joy reading can give kids and their families, and we believe books have the power to change lives and the world. So this week, we're sharing our childhood favorites that have stayed with us into adulthood. What are some of the stories you love?
“Wayside School’s many mysteries, silly tales, dozens of main characters and multi-layered jokes introduced a whole new way of reading — at least for me. What I truly love about the series is that while some of the stories within are content to make you smile, most manage to say something interesting about the unpredictable way children’s minds work and the challenges of changing one’s own perspective. As the author, Louis Sachar, writes in the books introduction: ‘It has been said that these stories are strange and silly. That is probably true. However, when I told stories about you to the children at Wayside, they thought you were strange and silly. That is probably also true.’” — Bridget Moore, Exhibits and Graphic Designer

“I love ‘The Rainbow Fish’ because it is the first book (that I remember) that launched me into an undersea world. I remember I wanted to learn more about the different kinds of marine organisms after reading this book. I love the color and the way it was drawn. I recommend this book because it has beautiful artwork that all ages will enjoy and it teaches us about sharing.” — Maria Luisa Ponce de Leon, BioSITE Educator
