MY Museum is the Monterey County Youth Museum, which offers fun activities and exhibits for children that center on everyday life. Children can play at the beach, try their hand at golf, help out at the hospital, build a house, perform on their own stage and even bring a creation from their imagination to life. Weekly events take place, too, such as Kinderjam on Wednesdays, where kids can dance and move, and My LEGO Lab on Fridays, where children can build together. These and other weekly vents are free with admission.

The children’s museum is open Tuesday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, from noon to 5 p.m. Closed Mondays. Admission is $8 for adults and children ages 2 and older. Infants and toddlers under 24 months get in for free.
