Retro Cars WonderWeek
Take the wheel of learning through a look into a classic past
April 12 – 18
In September 1908, Henry Ford revolutionized the world with the creation of the Ford Model T. Since then, America has been on the move. Come take a drive with the Children's Museum of Houston as we pay tribute to what some call the greatest invention of the 20th century during Retro Cars WonderWeek. Don’t forget to stop by the How Does It Work? exhibit to explore the ins and outs of the Museum’s very own 68’ Mustang on National Ford Mustang Day, April 17!
