The Contemporary Arts Museum Houston offers a variety of programs for children and their parents. For each major exhibition, there is a Houston Chronicle Family Day, offering family tours and hands-on art activities related to the current exhibition. Please check their calendar for the date and time of the next Houston Chronicle Family Day. They also offer Factivity Kits for young children, which include a Family Guide and special activities for children. Factivity Kits, presented in English and Spanish, are available free of charge at the information desk.
It's free. The exhibits are dynamic and vibrant. Not to overwhelming to trudge through with kids. Better for older kids and teens. They have a Houston Chronicle Family day about once a month for families to do things with kids at the museum.
