LACMA also has free art projects every Sunday, as part of the Andell Family Sunday series. This month they are doing projects focusing on maps, landscapes, and compasses, and there are some basic crafts for the little kids too:)
I have been wanting to take my kids to the miniature car exhibit as well. There is a huge track with cars that drive and zoom around. My son is 3.5 now, and I think old enough to not be supremely disappointed that he can't touch the cars, just look at them:)
So visit the website to get your kids signed up for NexGen, or just do it at the ticket window on your next trip. My kids got membership cards in the mail a few weeks after we registered by mail.
