National Museum Exhibition Gallery
S$15 adult / S$7.50 child
Recommend for children age 6-12 years old

This delightful one-of-a-kind exhibition is guaranteed to enthral all children! Conceived by the world-renowned Da Ponte Institute and ZOOM Children’s Museum, this award-winning exhibition invites children to playfully explore 11 themed rooms to discover the differences and similarities of everyday living in the 18th century and present time. Visitors are encouraged to relate to the young Mozart, identify with him and to compare themselves to him: What was Mozart actually like as a kid? How often did he wash and brush his teeth? What games did he play and why did he travel so much? Why did he never go to school but still spoke several languages? And last but not least: What are my own talents and abilities?

Whether it’s mixing herbal remedies according to old recipes, making paper wigs, learning how to dance, writing in old-style scripts with quill and ink, or dressing up as aristocrats, children will discover their hidden geniuses through this process of play. A wonderfully enjoyable and educational experience for both children and parents, not to be missed!
