Replicas of the classic TINKERTOY construction set provide the framework for fun, educational activities in this traveling exhibit at the Long Island Children's Museum.

With LICM’s 25th birthday approaching, the museum wanted an exhibit in place that would highlight the innovation, collaboration and play it is known for! Giant replicas of the classic TINKERTOY construction set provide the framework for fun, educational activities inspired by GE technologies that turn imagination into working solutions to real world challenges. Visitors can explore a walk-in size replica of the iconic canister, create their own designs in an open play area, experiment with renewable energy and water filtration and take part in a special scavenger hunt. This exhibit will run through Sunday, January 6, 2019. 

The LICM is open Tuesday - Sunday 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. September through June.
