Shrink the Museum (Not the Kids) – Tucson, Az

The Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures’ permanent collections boast over 400 miniature houses and room boxes to explore. Themes cover history (one miniature dates back to 1775), enchantment, and exploration, and span cultures and countries. Their Kids Create Family Fun Program runs every second Saturday of the month. School-age kids get to make their own miniatures! Remaining programs for 2017 include “Mini Monster” and “Tiny Elf Fairy.”
