Experience the Miracle of Play™

For nearly a century, we’ve created a legacy of “leaving it better than we found it.” This philosophy has inspired us to create one of our newest innovations, the Miracle Museum™ — a children’s museum experience that gives kids the chance to engage in fantastical sensory events.
Children are diverse in their interests and their physical and intellectual abilities.
Since children have different interests and abilities, play products must be universally designed, meaning the play equipment is accessible to and usable by all people to the greatest extent possible, so that everyone can have a similar play experience.
Children benefit from play, especially sensory play. Increased self-esteem, improved collaboration skills, enhanced critical thinking skills and a strengthened immune system are just some of the high-level benefits children gain by playing. While all unstructured play is valuable for children, sensory play significantly impacts the way a child develops — specifically cognitive development of fine motor skills, language development, relaxation and self-awareness. Sensory play is the phrase used to describe sensory learning that is incorporated into play.
Not All Playgrounds Are Created Equal
While any playground can provide children with certain sensory experiences, a genuinely sensory-friendly playground, such as the Miracle Museum, offers a variety of equipment designed to stimulate each of the five senses, in addition to the sense of balance and the ability to judge positioning in space.
Children’s museums are recognized for their sensory experiences and for being places to explore with a family member or friend. The experience encourages expressive and social play — make music, push, pull, spin and feel. Do it all with a friend or explore on your own.
Miracle Museum takes the benefits of the children’s museum experience and enables you to incorporate it into a park, giving you the additional sensory benefit of being outdoors. It also allows you to provide a sensoryrich, universally designed play and learning experience for your community.
Miracle Museum Collection
Most Miracle Museum products do not require safety surfacing, so they can convert under-utilized spaces into sensory-rich play areas, such as old basketball or tennis courts. They can even be installed indoors in your community room or fitness center.
Since 1927, Miracle Recreation has brought innovation to parks and communities around the globe. Let us help you bring the Miracle of Play to your park today!
