March is Reading Month, and we’re celebrating in a meaningful way. Every child who visits Kidzeum during the month of March will receive a free book to take home. This initiative is made possible through the generous donation of books from the Springfield Urban League and the Williamsville Public Library & Museum, helping us place stories directly into the hands of young readers across our community. We believe stories spark curiosity, imagination, and a lifelong love of learning. By giving every child a book, we’re extending the Kidzeum experience beyond our exhibits and into homes, classrooms, and bedtime routines. No special registration or admission required. Just visit Kidzeum in March and your kiddos will leave with a book of their very own. Come explore, play, and turn the page with us.
Kidzeum is open WED - SUN, 9AM - 4PM
Books have generously been donated by the Springfield Urban League, Williamsville Public Library & Museum, Pawnee Public Library, and Prairie Skies Public Library.
