Gabby's Dollhouse is a globally popular mixed media preschool series streaming on Netflix, combining live action and animation to transport viewers into a whimsical world filed with adorable cat characters. Rooted in a growth mindset, each episode encourages flexible thinking and learning through trial and error.
“We’re excited to partner with DreamWorks Animation and ACM to bring these cat-tastic, hands-on experiences to MODS,” said Joseph P. Cox, president and CEO of MODS. “Through creativity, collaboration and curiosity, guests will build foundational STEM skills while developing confidence and critical thinking by making memories and learning from their mistakes. After all, as Gabby says, sometimes we earn a lot by ‘failing fantastically.’”
Families can look forward to a meow-gical meet-and-greet with Gabby, the show’s beloved costumed character, and paws-on activities including MerCat’s Water Walking Spa, the Hamster Kitty Craft, an Egg Carton Garden, a Glass Xylophone, cozy storytime sessions and a museum-wide scavenger hunt to find Gabby’s friends. It’s the purr-fect celebration for curious kids and families.
“ACM and DreamWorks Animation share key values as they relate to playful learning,” said Arthur G. Affleck, III, executive director of the Association of Children’s Museums. “Like children’s museums, Gabby’s Dollhouse emphasizes social-emotional learning and showcases compassion, curiosity, creativity, learning from mistakes and the joy of teamwork. ACM is so excited to be partnering with DreamWorks Animation to shine a spotlight on our member museums across the country.”
