about the exhibit

It’s a Beautiful Day to Be You: Inspired by Mister Rogers, Daniel Tiger & Donkey Hodie invites visitors to step into a world where kindness, curiosity, joy, and creativity come to life. Visitors explore beloved locations from Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood and Donkey Hodie and connect with the timeless lessons of Mister Rogers. Visitors of all ages will discover and celebrate the wonderful person they are because every day is a beautiful day to be you. In this exhibit, visitors can:

  • Grow kindness in a magical way! Pick a flower, give it a little love and water, and watch it bloom before sending it off to live in the Enchanted Garden.
  • Blast off to a dance party in space! Push pegs, pull levers, and press buttons to create your own out-of-this-world music mix at Purple Panda’s Spaceship Planet Party.
  • Practice patience as you watch the Trolley Tunnel lights change colors. This magical tunnel connects the Neighborhood of Make-Believe and Someplace Else.
