History
On October 1, 2010 the Louisiana Children’s Discovery Center opened its door in downtown Hammond, and that is when the dream came alive. Visitors came from near and far, from all walks of life to play and experience memories that families long for spending quality time with their children. Families were looking for a place with no electronic devices or daily interruptions, just good old fashioned play where children are inspired to expand their imaginations, creativity and motor skills.
There are many magical moments that happen on a daily basis at the Discovery Center; just stop by for a visit and you will see what we mean.
We are a non-profit 501(C)(3) organization, and in order for the Discovery Center to keep admissions affordable for all families in our community, your support is critical to help us continue to offer meaningful programs and continue to grow with new exhibits and maintain our existing exhibits.
We hope you will visit our center and see all the wonderful activities we offer our families, and consider supporting our efforts.
