As an added bonus, guests can enjoy the outdoors with the Long Island Children's Museum's seasonal "Our Backyard" exhibit. 

The outdoor exhibit offers a sensory garden, a water table and lush plants. There are plenty of interactive elements, including a pirate ship wheel, a hand pump to create summer showers on demand, a "fishing" setup, evaporating easel art, gravel pit, sandpit, and more.

The water play area—H2Oh! Watering Our Backyard—usually opens for a splashing good time after Memorial Day Weekend.

Bonus option: This space is also available for private rental on a seasonal basis.
