Play, explore, imagine!
Step into a world of playful Australian stories at the Tim and Gina Fairfax Discovery Centre, an immersive indoor play space for 0-6 year-olds.
Designed to spark curiosity and creativity, little explorers can climb ropes, navigate an interactive fish trap, and dress up as a bunyip by the billabong. There’s even a wheelchair-accessible rocking deck, ensuring adventure for all.
For a quieter moment, snuggle into cosy reading nooks or let infants explore a dedicated crawling space—perfect for early discovery and connection.
A must-visit rain or shine, this playful space found within the National Museum of Australia is where little imaginations run free!
