Mid Hudson Children's Museum

There's a spot on the Poughkeepsie waterfront where kids can get their hands on science, art, and a whole lot of imaginative play — and this summer, it just got a lot more accessible.

This week on In Touch, we spoke with the executive director for the Mid-Hudson Discovery Museum about their mission and goals, and how they accommodate all children and families in the area and beyond with engaging learning activities.

Are you already starting to dread the long summer days with the kids saying "I'm bored." Looking for things to do with the family? The Hudson Valley, along with the Adirondacks, Catskills and even the Albany area has many museums that will distract, entertain and educate you and your family this summer...

Hands on fun that will keep the kids happy while they actually learn a little something.

Just like every community, Poughkeepsie has its issues but ultimately it's a nice place to live and work.

Several Hudson Valley businesses and organizations offering goods, services, support and socialization to those impacted by the current government shutdown.

Federal employees, Thursday 1/10/19 from 5pm-8pm bring the family to the Mid Hudson Children's Museum for free pizza and playtime.
