| Abstract: | This paper examines important factors in maximizing children’s experiential learning in the context of inquiry-based children’s
museums. Learning is understood as situated in physical, social, and interactive context that is best achieved when children
have opportunities to engage in play-based inquiry. Recommendations for maximizing children’s learning in museums, supporting
children’s interactions with peers and adults, and offering affordances for children’s play are discussed. |
