Vamos Niños: Play to Learn, our mobile museum and resource center, will be a place that connects families to resources as they engage with their children in a fun-filled space designed for play, exploration and learning.
We recognize that early childhood resources are not distributed equally, and that challenges such as limited public transportation and high poverty are barriers to access. The mobile museum will travel throughout Doña Ana County, and is intended to bring access not only to the more populated regions, but particularly to underserved rural areas and the colonias.
We have begun the process of retro-fitting a 44-foot toy hauler RV and transforming it into our mobile children's museum! We are working closely with Sightworks, an exhibit design company based in Albuquerque to design a space that will allow children and their families the opportunity to develop all domains of early childhood development.
There will be no cost to families to visit the mobile museum in their community.
Here is a sneak peek at all of the fun we have planned for vamos niños!
Can you believe all of this will be fit into a 44-foot toy hauler RV?
Vamos Niños will not be possible without the support of our community. Please consider making a gift to help us reach our goal of launching by the spring of 2024!
