The DoSeum is San Antonio’s flagship children’s museum, a two-story, hands-on learning center at 2800 Broadway on the city’s Broadway cultural corridor, just south of Brackenridge Park. Founded in 1995 as the San Antonio Children’s Museum and reopened in its current purpose-built home in 2015, it draws families and educators for play-based science, art, and literacy exhibits designed mainly for children up to about age ten (source: [The DoSeum](https://www.thedoseum.org/)).
Inside, kids crack codes and dodge laser beams in Spy Academy, run a child-sized market and community in Little Town, and splash, climb, and dig in the Big Outdoors play space. Rotating Explore Studios exhibits and a working Artist-in-Residence program keep repeat visits fresh. Younger toddlers have dedicated zones, and the museum schedules sensory-friendly programming for neurodivergent visitors (source: [The DoSeum](https://www.thedoseum.org/)).
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
School field trips crowd weekday mornings during the academic year, so early afternoons usually offer more room to explore. Weekends, summer break, and school holidays bring the heaviest attendance. Check current hours and buy tickets online before you go, and pack a change of clothes for the outdoor water play (source: [The DoSeum Hours + Directions](https://www.thedoseum.org/hours-directions)). On-site parking is available, and VIA buses run along Broadway. Pair your visit with the nearby Witte Museum, the San Antonio Zoo, Brackenridge Park, or lunch at the Pearl district a short drive south.
