The Children’s Museum of Manhattan has a major,
new interactive exhibition with environments and activities
themed to the Seuss classic Oh,
the Places You'll Go! The exhibit opened first
in New York and then will tour select cities around the
country.
The Oh, the Places You’ll Go! exhibition
bursts with Seussian colors, characters, and off-center
structures—from the exhibition’s floor,
walls, ceiling, and even from the façade of the
museum. Visitors will follow Seussian pathways that
lead “straight out of town,” they’ll
“join the high fliers who soar to high heights”
via raised platforms or descend through tunnels from
a “prickle-ly perch” to a Seussian “Slump.”
The exhibition maintains the positive outlook on life
inherent in Oh, the Places You’ll Go!
and many of Theodor Seuss Geisel’s other books.
The exhibition is designed to inspire children to love
reading as it weaves together a history of Geisel’s
life and work with an interactive journey where children
and adults are immersed in activities. Children will
be encouraged to try new things and to become explorers
and doers with reading the key to finding new places.
