Stellar Children’s Museum is based on the philosophy that play is learning and that hands-on is so much better than hands-off.  Children are encouraged to play, explore and experiment so they can learn intuitively about universal concepts such as gravity, fluid dynamics and cause-and-effect.

​

The seven galleries spread out over 11,000 square feet of space are dedicated to different interests like Science, Arts & Craft, Gross Motor Skills and so on.

Major Activities:

AIR TEST COLUMN AND SCARF FOUNTAIN: Experiments to test the power of air under pressure and its ability and effect in moving or lifting various objects.

BERNOULLI TABLE: Uses Bernoulli’s principle to help explain the effect of low and high pressure on objects and their shapes. This explains aerodynamics and the forces of lift and thrust.

GRAVITY BALL DROP: This exhibit demonstrates why anything which has mass also has a gravitational pull. It helps understand the effect of gravity on objects of various sizes and weights.

GRAVITY WELL: This exhibit expresses the ideas of velocity, revolution, orbits and the laws of inertia. It is a visual demonstration of Kepler’s laws of Planetary Motion.

INVENT A CAR TABLE: Using building with bricks to teach spatial reasoning, awareness of proportions and patterns and problem solving skills. Duplo blocks are used to create cars of various designs.

RACE A CAR TRACK: Teaches the concepts of simple machines like an inclined plane and the forces acting on an object moving down the surface. It helps understand Newton's three laws of Motion.

​

BUILD A ROLLER COASTER : The “Build your own coaster” exhibit is a hands-on experience that involves the creation of your own roller coaster and then the testing

​

MAGNETIC BUILDING TILES: These magnetic tiles are magnetic on all sides and they attract other tiles to combine and create cubes, pyramids and other unlimited geometric shapes.

​

THE GEAR TABLE: This exhibit has a fixed gear and the users objective is to select additional gears from the barrel and engineer a combination that will connect all gears together.

​

BUILD A CITY: Keva blocks can be used to design and create everything from simple stacks to elaborate cities.

​

PIN SCREEN : Children use their hands, arms and other objects to create colorful impressions on this interactive multi-sensory exhibit. It combines movement and creativity to enhance brain stimulation and contour gauge.

COLOR MIXING : Slide the backlit panels in each row over each other to reveal new textures, patterns, shades and colors that emerge. 

TUBE CHIMES : Chimes are a member of the percussion family and can be used to explain Pythagora’s Theory of Sound. Striking the top edge of the lower end of the tube of various lengths, gives rise to low notes and high notes.

MAGNETIC ART : Replicate on a magnetic board famous works of Great Masters that involve shape sequencing and sorting using a colorful array of engaging patterning puzzles.

WASHER MUSIC UNIT : This explains the concept of vibrating waves producing sound. This is explained by dropping various sizes of washers over a threaded screw to produce sound waves.

PAINT ON GLASS: Children create designs on glass using paint as the medium to express their creativity through individual or collaborative effort.

​

WORKSHOP AREA: This area is a place where kids and their families can design and experiment with various educational concepts

​

MARKET and CAFE: Children learn the basics of mathematics; reading and science as they sort and shop for produce, weigh their selections and ring up their purchases. 

​

DIG PIT : Children can dig into rubber pieces that look like dirt to dig out bugs and other creepy crawlies. They are aware of the environment and the need to protect it.

​

CANOPY AND TREE CLIMBER : Enhances gross motor development as children learn to maneuver through an enclosed interconnected series of mazes.

​

WATER TABLE : Explore the power of water and the energy it can create. Experiment by placing dams into the slots to maneuver the flow of water.

​

Timings: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM Tuesday to Friday. Saturday/Sunday 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM.

Closed on Monday

​

Entry Fee: INR 500 for Child, INR 250 for Adults  (General Visitors).  INR 250 for Child, INR 250 for Adults (Stellar Gymkhana Members).
