Pretend City Children's Museum turns a miniature city into a setting for play and early learning in Irvine.

Its connected activity spaces encourage children to explore everyday roles, try ideas, and move between different parts of a community. The emphasis is on participation rather than viewing objects behind glass.
Plan around the museum's current admission sessions and age guidance, and allow children time to follow their own interests. Check the official visitor information for daily programs, member-entry arrangements, and accessibility needs. Use the current Hubble address when navigating to the museum.
