Summary/Abstract: The SNM Children‘s Museum opened in 2010 as the first of its kind in Slovakia. It is not a traditional museum with collections, but it specializes in interactive exhibitions primarily intended for visitors under the age of 15. So far, the museum has organized fifteen interactive exhibitions, of which seven were the sole initiate of the museum. In addition to these exhibitions, the SNM Children’s Museum conducted several accompanying programs. During its existence, it has evolved into one of the important cultural and educational institutions as evidenced by, i. a., the growing number of visitors, many of them in organized school groups.
