Miami Children’s Museum will set the scene for Winter at MiChiMu festivities all month long. Locals and visitors are invited to embrace the festive spirit with a lineup of exciting family-friendly activities and engaging holiday programming.
Tropical Winter Wonderland Sock Skating Rink
Guests can glide and twirl in their socks on the outdoor sock skating rink, pose for a wintery family photo with a tropical twist, and shop for the little ones on their list at the Kid Smart Gift Shop daily.
Art Week at MiChiMu
Now through December 8, families are invited to MiChiMu for a week of art-filled fun, where children can explore the world of contemporary art through activities, interactive exhibits, and workshops.
ArtBasel Kids
Taking place at the Miami Beach Convention Center December 6-8, this offsite activation will invite children and families to partake in creative and educational activities throughout the weekend. Inspired by six renowned female artists, the theme for this year’s interactive program is Women of Wonder. Pre-registration is required.
Hanukkah with PJ Library
On December 9, celebrate Hanukkah early with PJ Library, a local organization serving Jewish families. Guests can enjoy a storytime, engage in a fun activity, and savor a holiday snack. Discover the excitement of the dreidel game and unleash creativity with a Hanukkah-themed craft.
Holidays Around the World
From December 10-29, children can discover some of the popular holidays celebrated in the United States, as well as those observed across the world. They’ll craft their own wrapping paper, make beeswax candles, and get creative in MiChiMu’s Art Studio by designing festive foliage.
Sensory-Friendly Saturday
On the second Saturday of each month (December 14), MiChiMu offers a free sensory-friendly event for children with disabilities and their families. Winter-themed sensory activities, theater performances by MiChiMu’s players, and exhibits—all within a setting with reduced noise, dimmed lighting, and limited attendance—await.
