The insatiable curiosity of Curious George – the little monkey who has captured the imagination and hearts of millions of children and adults – comes to life May 17, 2025, at Discovery World. The new exhibit, Curious George: Let’s Get Curious!, will introduce young children to Curious George’s world and lead visitors on a fun, meaningful interactive math, science and engineering-based adventure.

Inside the Exhibit:

  • Apartment Building
    Operate wheels to move George on pulleys from window to window. Climb the fire escape and climb inside to play with color, light and shadow.
  • Sidewalk Produce Stand
    Play customer or salesperson and explore shape, sorting, weighing and counting with fruit and vegetables.
  • Construction Site
    Design a building, make use of a bounty of building materials and get to work constructing different structures and using machines to move materials.
  • City Park
    Enjoy the urban green space: rest or give a hug to a full-size George and take a picture! Our youngest visitors will enjoy our busy wall activities for babies and toddlers.
  • Mini Golf
    Use pipes, ramps, funnels, turntables, bumpers and force to experiment with physics and engineering as you putt through three holes of mini golf.
  • Space Rocket
    Step up to the rocket Curious George took on his space adventure! Pose for a picture with George in his space suit and e-mail it home.
  • Farm
    Take a vacation to the country and visit the farm. Experience cause and effect and use wind power to move yard art like whirligigs, windmills, windsocks, and wind chimes. Build your own whirligig and care for the farm animals.
  • Museum Within the Museum
    Learn new things about George when you visit the Museum within the Museum. Follow H.A. and Margret Rey’s work, the escape from France to safety during World War II that saved the Curious George manuscript, and Curious George throughout the years.
