BOXING DAY BUILDING EXTRAVAGANZA

Help build and explore an extravagant box city with us at the museum. Build tipping towers or majestic mansions in our gallery space and take Boxing Day to the next level. Take home your creation or add it to the Children's Museum box city that we will be developing throughout the day.
