Exhibit of the Month: The Water Table!
At the Children’s Museum of Oswego, we believe in the power of hands-on learning, and there’s no better way to experience that than with our famous water table exhibit. As educators, we know that purposeful play is essential to early childhood development—and our Water Table exhibit offers just that. Through pouring, scooping, splashing, and experimenting, children engage in foundational learning experiences that support cognitive growth, sensory integration, and fine motor development.
Water play introduces early STEM concepts such as volume, flow, buoyancy, and cause and effect, all while nurturing curiosity and problem-solving. It also promotes social-emotional skills like cooperation and communication when children work together to explore and create.
This month, we invite you to explore the educational value of water play with your child. Our Water Table is more than fun—it’s a powerful learning tool that supports growth across multiple developmental domains. Join us in making a splash that builds skills for a lifetime!
