Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it's vital for growing happy and healthy kids. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to nurture those busy minds.
One of our faves is a trip to the museum. Children's museums are an obvious stop for fun, but history, art, and specialty museums still offer a wealth of cultural and educational opportunities for kids of all ages.
Curating all those fantastic experiences can come at a steep cost. Thankfully, the Museums for All program offers free or low-cost admission to 1,200 museums nationwide for families with a SNAP EBT card.

Museums for All partners with museums nationwide to provide families receiving food assistance with free or reduced admission; the maximum admission under Museums for All is $3.
This unique program allows all families to visit and enjoy museums, zoos, botanical gardens, aquariums, historic sites, and more. All you have to do is present a photo ID and your EBT card.
