The Kidspace Children’s Museum in Pasadena will join museum stores across the U.S. and 10 other participating countries in the first-ever “Museum Store Sunday” on November 26 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

To celebrate, Kidspace’s Busy Bee Learning Store will offer a free item with purchase, a self-serve gift wrap station, and a 20 percent discount on purchases by Kidspace Members.

Museum stores help support their organizations financially and are a resource for the community.

The goal of the Busy Bee Learning Store is to inspire play, engage families in learning together and promote Kidspace’s mission of nurturing the potential of all children.

The Busy Bee Learning Store is jam-packed with books, toys, and plush for infants to age 10. Some of the most popular items include puppets, builder toys, dinosaurs, science kits, and early learner developmental toys.

Purchases on Museum Store Sunday could help support the missions and programming of your favorite local museums.

“Shopping at museum stores is a tangible way to continue the experience at home and keep learning,” said Assistant Director of Operations Susan Cardosi-Albert. “During the holiday season, you have the added benefit of buying unique gifts for your loved ones.”

Museum Store Sunday was launched by the nonprofit Museum Store Association and in partnership with the UK’s Association for Cultural Enterprises and the Museum Shops Association in Australia and New Zealand.

Kidspace Children’s Museum has been an active member of the Museum Store Association since 2006.

The Museum Store Association is a 501(c)(3) international organization with the mission of advancing the nonprofit retail industry and the success of the professionals engaged in it. By encouraging high standards of knowledge and professionalism, MSA helps nonprofit retail professionals better serve their institutions and the public.

Kidspace is located at 480 N. Arroyo Blvd., in Brookside Park, Pasadena 91103.
