Today, I am going to visit the Museum. I am so happy to learn more about Canadian history.
When I arrive, I may walk a few steps to the entrance from outside.
If I come by car, I may come in from the parking lot using stairs or an elevator.
Next, I will buy a ticket at the Box Office. I may need to wait in line, and it could be crowded.
If I have a bag or coat, I can leave it at the Coat Check. There is a staff member who will give me a tag with a number for my coat or bag.
Once I have my ticket, I can go to the Information desk to get a Museum Guide. They also have noise-cancelling headphones if I need to borrow some.
Next, I will go to one of the entrances. I will get my ticket checked and I can receive a stamp on my hand ― only if I want one. If not, it is fine, and I can go in.
I can use the escalators, the stairs or ramps to access the different floors.
I can also use the elevators to reach every level. There is an elevator to reach the exhibitions located next to the Coat Check, and one elevator to reach the parking garage behind the Box Office
In the Canadian History Hall, I can also use ramps like this one to access the different floors.
In the Canadian History Hall, I can see videos and different objects. It may get suddenly loud. I can cover my ears when I walk by or borrow headphones at the Information desk.
If I get tired or overwhelmed, I can take a rest on any bench. There are places to sit in the Canadian History Hall Lobby on Level 3 or in the W.E. Taylor Salon on Level 1.
I may be here to play at the Canadian Children’s Museum. This is where I go through the entrance.
When I am in the Canadian Children’s Museum, it might be loud, as other children are excited to play, too. There are some great things to discover, like the bus.
There are many different things to explore, and the staff are friendly.
There are some quiet corners where I can take a break.
Museum staff members wear beige shirts with black vests and are everywhere in the Museum. They can tell me more about the exhibitions, show me some objects I can touch, and help me to find my way.
Security agents are also in uniform, and they can help me find my way if I need to ask directions.
If I need to use the washroom, I can look for this sign.
If I get hungry, I can go to the Café Express or the Panorama Café to buy food or eat food I brought with me.
The Café Express is past the Children’s Museum, and the Panorama Café is at the end of the hallway leading from the Grand Hall.
When it’s time to leave the Museum, I will exit from the front door, or take the elevator or stairs across from the Canadian Children’s Museum to the parking lot. I had so much fun, and I will come back again!
