💰NEW special exhibition now on view at Joseph Brant Museum! The Bank of Canada Museum asked Canadian kids what they wanted to know about money. A whole lot, as it turned out. More than 800 thoughtful, complex and just plain fun questions flooded in from across the country. This exhibition answers 10 of these questions using a series of play-based activity stations. The answers provide a foundation for what kids need to know to help them manage their financial futures. Money in 10 Questions, provides a space for parents and children to play and learn, sparking conversations and inspiration.

This exhibition was developed by the Bank of Canada Museum. Tour management is provided by Ingenium – Canada’s Museums of Science and Innovation.
