Boston Children's Museum Celebrates Imagination and Play

The Boston Children's Museum is set to inspire creativity and fun for the second consecutive year by hosting the Gabby's Dollhouse MEOWseum Discovery Days from September 18 to September 20, 2026. This initiative, in association with DreamWorks Animation and the Association of Children’s Museums (ACM), aims to foster a love for discovery through engaging activities and playful learning opportunities.

A Magical Experience Awaits

During this exciting event, families will have the chance to meet Gabby, the beloved character from DreamWorks' hit animated series. The event promotes various activities designed to ignite children's imagination and curiosity, reiterating the importance of creative play. Visitors can take part in a delightful Meet & Greet with Gabby, allowing kids to connect with their favorite character and experience firsthand the joy of interactive storytelling.

Executive Director Arthur G. Affleck, III of ACM remarked, "We are proud to collaborate with DreamWorks Animation to promote imaginative play across the country. Both ACM and DreamWorks share a passion for nurturing creativity and curiosity among children, which aligns perfectly with the spirit of Gabby's Dollhouse."

Exciting Activities to Enjoy

Each day of the MEOWseum Discovery Days will be filled with exciting activities tailored to cater to various interests. Children can participate in a whimsical scavenger hunt to find the Gabby Cats, engage in Storytime, and even join a lively dance party alongside DJ Catnip. One of the highlights will be the chance for children to create their very own Hamster Kitty Fairies, making this event a perfect blend of fun and artistic expression.

The Museum will open its doors from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on each of the event days. Notably, attendance to these magical activities will be free with a paid museum admission, but advance reservations are highly recommended to ensure a spot due to limited capacity.

The show encourages kids to embark on their own adventures filled with surprises and discoveries.
