Editor's Take

Come here for curiosity and hands-on discovery, not for all-out physical play; it shines brightest with kids who like to tinker and explore.

About the Venue

Pennypickle’s Workshop is Temecula’s science-themed children’s museum, designed as the imaginative home of Professor Phineas T. Pennypickle. Families come for hands-on exhibits, playful STEM discovery, and a more exhibit-driven outing than a traditional soft-play gym. It is especially appealing for preschool and elementary-age kids who love pressing buttons, testing gadgets, and exploring room by room.
