Pretend City Children’s Museum has been recognized as the 2025 Nonprofit of the Year for Assembly District 73 by Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris.

Since opening in 2009, we’ve welcomed over 2.3 million guests, offering hands-on learning for children ages 0 to 8. We provide access to developmental screenings, parenting resources, and culturally inclusive programs like Neurodivergent Family Night  and Way to Play Days .
