The permanent PBS Kids exhibit room will feature multimedia interactive activities, games, books and a rotating hands-on experiment type activity, all related to PBS Kids educational content. “The Children’s Museum is undergoing some changes and we felt strongly that we should be partnering with local community organizations on the exhibit space and content,” says Cookeville Children’s Museum Executive Director Patti Purdy.
“The museum will feature exhibits from WCTE-PBS, The Bryan Symphony Orchestra, Rogers Group, and other local businesses and nonprofits.”
