Museum Mondays

Mondays | 10:00 – 11:30 AM
June 1st through July 20th, 2026
Free Program for Toddlers & Parents

Museum Mondays is a lively and engaging early childhood program designed for children ages 2 to 4 (accompanied by an adult), with younger and older siblings always welcome. Held weekly on Monday mornings throughout the summer, this eight-week series supports social-emotional learning and pre-literacy development through playful, hands-on experiences.

Each session includes:

  • A children’s book read aloud
  • An activity in the museum inspired by the story
  • Art and motor-skill activities connected to the book
  • A fun and thematic snack

Rooted in New Mexico’s Early Learning Guidelines, Museum Mondays helps children build vocabulary, practice making choices, develop fine and gross motor skills, and connect with others—all in a creative, community-centered environment.

Museum Mondays continues to grow thanks to feedback from local families and collaborations with community members, student interns, and dedicated volunteers. It’s more than just story time—it’s a dynamic space where Taos families can explore, learn, and create together.
