How People Make Things
Inspired by the Mister Rogers' Factory Tours

Opens May 31, and runs through September 7, 2008




Ever wonder how a box becomes a box? Or how a sneaker becomes a sneaker? Chances are your child has. At How People Make Things learn firsthand about tools and processes used to make everyday objects. It's just one more way we inspire "thinking outside the box." See more about the exhibit here.

How People Make Things is created by Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh in collaboration with Family Communications, Inc. (FCI), the producer of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, and the University of Pittsburgh Center for Learning in Out-of-School Environments (UPCLOSE)
