The Atlanta History Center has launched a new experience for kids that makes learning fun!

The Goizueta Children’s Experience is an exciting new 5,000-square-foot space at 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).

Kids can climb through time, take center stage, create, collect, play — and even smell — Atlanta’s history in this hands-on, interactive space.

Each year, Goizueta Children’s Experience will introduce a new theme with exciting new experiences. This year, kids can explore the vibrant Our Great Big City theme, rooted in Atlanta’s history, innovative spirit, distinctive geography, and dynamic arts and culture scene. Visitors will have a chance to have fun while learning about Atlanta’s many landmarks and history.
