Coming Soon!
The Goizueta Children's Experience
Kids can explore "The Big City" through interactive play

A new permanent 5000 square-foot interactive children’s exhibit is coming to the Atlanta History Center in January 2025.

The Goizueta Children’s Experience – an exciting new, 5,000 square-foot space at the Atlanta History Center where kids can experience the city through play, exploration and storytelling. The immersive and multi-sensory design will delight children from crawlers (ages 1-3 years old) to second graders (ages 6-8 years old). The Goizueta Children’s Experience theme will rotate annually, launching with Our Great Big City, offering visitors a chance to have fun while learning about Atlanta’s many landmarks and history.

 

Highlights of the 2025 Children’s Experience Include:

Time Machine Climber

Embark on a journey through time on a colossal climber where kids can ascend to new heights, control a time dial for sensory surprises, and explore history-themed games. The climber also includes an illuminated Dance Party Zone, providing an engaging and playful learning adventure.

Mini Fox Theater

A dynamic stage where young imaginations take center stage. With ambient lighting and velvet drapery, the Mini Fox Theatre and Mighty Mo Organ create an intimate setting for storytelling and performance, encouraging kids to engage with the arts.

The Varsity’s Silly Scent Station

This quirky station transports visitors back in time by mimicking the front seat dashboard of a 1930s car. As kids press dashboard buttons, diner-inspired scents waft from the car vents, offering an immersive and fun experience reminiscent of Atlanta’s iconic drive-ins, like The Varsity.

Tiny Toddler Town

Inspired by Atlanta’s vibrant neighborhoods, this cozy area is designed for little explorers (ages 1-3). Surrounded by plush, skyline-inspired elements, the space offers a safe environment for crawling, playing, and exploration.

Creator Hub

A vibrant space with hands-on activities perfect for school groups, young learners, and their caregivers. It encourages creativity and collaboration in an environment designed for imaginative expression.
