“Wonderful and unique experience!”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Such a clean and well maintained space, the staff are so friendly and engaging, from the moment we arrived at the front desk we felt welcomed in a personal way. The exhibits themselves are all so fun, it never felt crowded or rushed… Read full review

And the MOST popular Xmas Gift @ MoPA this year is? Our limited edition Xmas Membership Pack!!
$98 for UNLIMITED MoPA visits in 2025 + free tee + free paintbrush pen + free sticker pack!! WHOA!!!
From today right up until Christmas eve, ALL children visiting MoPA can work with our educators to create and take home their very own PERSONALISE-ABLE SNOW DOME!!
Yep. That’s right. Snow. In a dome. AND a drawing. Also in the dome. Cutest. Gift. Ever.
A tribute to Nonny? A nod to Uncle Lach? A gift for Auntie Paula? Or perhaps simply “The place where Iggy came from” (thanks Lily, Mum did clarify that Iggy is your lil’ plush penguin).
YOUR child’s snow dome can be whatever their imagination desires; and EVERY child that visits MoPA will receive one to make and take - from now and Christmas eve. Epic.
🥳 MoPA Thomastown will open on Wednesday 4th December, and tickets are available as of… RIGHT… NOW!

FINALLY - The big (well, GIANT) reveal is less than 3 weeks away!
And after almost a full year in design and construction, we just can’t WAIT to show you all of what’s on offer at Melbourne’s new Children’s Museum.
Whilst we haven’t put tickets on sale yet, we HAVE opened bookings for Birthday Parties 🥳 Note: If you ARE keen to book a party, we recommend that you book at least 8-12 weeks in advance, because all our party availability does sell out.
What does red sound like? Yellow smell like? Pink feel like? MoPA’s all-senses colour wheel is a beautiful introduction to abstract thinking for lil’ cuties. It’s a wondrous experience to share with your children (you can almost SEE their brains ticking away) and that’s why it’s 100% our fav… ONE of… our favourite exhibits. 😜🎨♥️
