Things to Do With the Kids: New Haven Museum



Looking for a new place to take the kids? Why not head to the New Haven Museum. It is free on the first Sunday of the month so you have no excuse.


Currently they are presenting an interesting exhibit entitled “Fun, Fascinating and Made in the Elm City: ‘From Clocks to Lollipops: Made in New Haven’"


From the Colonial era to the present day, New Haven has produced an astonishing variety of goods, including hardware, carriages, automobile parts and accessories, firearms, corsets, clocks, carpeting, rubber overshoes, clothing, musical instruments, and candy - just to name a few.  From Clocks to Lollipops: Made in New Haven” features a wide-ranging and sometimes humorous look at the production of consumer goods in New Haven over the past three centuries.”

There is much more to see beyond this exhibit, check out their website for details.
