Each month in the museum gallery, we offer toys, crafts, and activities, for kids of all ages, featuring a new Northport Notable. 

Kid's can play with old fashioned toys, play dress-up with authentic period clothing, read, and play with old technology like rotary telephones, scales, and a typewriter.

If you can't make it to the museum, click on the image above to visit our Kid's Cove Page and print out the coloring pages/activities to do at home.
