How can you teach children financial literacy in a fun and interactive way? Visit the Miami Children’s Museum and walk through the Bank of America six-foot piggy bank. In this interactive exhibit, children can learn about the importance of earning, saving and spending money as well as the components of a dollar and making change. Additionally, a set of touchscreen activities lets younger kids practice number recognition, simple math skills and fine motor skills.

The new Bank of America exhibit, designed by Lee H. Skolnick Architecture + Design Partnership (New York), opened in November at the Miami Children’s Museum. Lee H. Skolnick Architecture + Design Partnership is currently engaged with MCM in a multi-year renovation program to refresh and realize new exhibits included in their 2013 Interpretive Master Plan.

NorthStar Museums provided construction management, Breeze Creative provided A/V design and production with exhibit fabrication by Lexington Design + Fabrication.

Other children's museums exhibits by Lee H. Skolnick Architecture + Design Partnership include Muzeiko, American for Bulgaria Children's Museum, (Sofia, Bulgaria); Discovery Zone at the Museum of Natural History (Fla.); and DiMenna Chidren's History Museum (New York).
