Timmy’s Town Center (TTC) is a private, not-for-profit organization formed to create a children’s museum. With nearly 300 children’s museums in the United States and dozens in development both here and abroad, these inter-generational and informal learning sites are regarded as places where children develop essential fundamental skills; where they are respected; where families connect in meaningfulways, and where the creative spark of lifelong learning is often ignited. The primary audience will be children from birth to age 10 and the adults who accompany them. The focus will be on children between the ages of 4 and 7. The organizing theme of TTC is the exploration of self and community within the context of Northeastern Pennsylvania. Over time and through relevant interactive, hands-on and minds-on changing exhibits and programs, TTC will help young visitors, their families and their caregivers discover what it means to live in, care for and sustain a healthy community. The discovery of community is both fun and work. TTC understands play is a child’s work, and that we must make exploration and discovery fun.
