MarieVan Brittan Brown was the inventor of the first home security system. She is also credited with the invention of the first closed circuit television. Brown was born in Queens, New York, on October 22, 1922, and resided there until her death on February 2, 1999, at age seventy-six. Her father was born in Massachusetts and her mother was from Pennsylvania.

Three peepholes were placed on the front door at different height levels. The top one was for tall persons, the bottom one was for children, and the middle one was for anyone of average height. At the opposite side of the door a camera was attached with the ability to slide up and down to allow the person to see through each peephole. The camera picked up images that would reflect on the monitor via a wireless system. The monitor could be placed in any part of the house to allow you to see who was at the door.

There was also a voice component to enable Brown to speak to the person outside. If the person was perceived to be an intruder, the police would be notified with the push of a button. If the person was a welcome or expected visitor, the door could be unlocked via remote control.

For 100 years, Boston Children’s Museum has given the children of Boston- and the world - a very powerful gift: playful learning. Often underestimated, play is the complex and vital work of childhood. Young learners discover the world in which they live through experiences defined by exploration, curiosity, and creative possibility.

Since the beginning, the mission of Boston Children’s Museum has focused on forming habits of the mind needed for learning. In the Museum’s early years, this meant guiding children and youth through high school age to look closely at natural history specimens and cultural objects, using their experiences . . .

Since the beginning, the mission of Boston Children’s Museum has focused on forming habits of the mind needed for learning. In the Museum’s early years, this meant guiding children and youth through high school age to look closely at natural history specimens and cultural objects, using their experiences to form their understanding of things. That same self-direction inspires children today as they negotiate the climbing sculpture, create a monster-sized bubble, or learn Japanese crafts in the Kyo no Machiya (Japanese house). Through self-directed experiences and play, children can discover their interests, explore the unknown, develop new skills, link outcomes with choices, master their fears, and learn to play with others.

This centennial photo album celebrates the ways Boston Children’s Museum has encouraged children to think critically about the world and their place in it. By creating opportunities for playful exploration, the Museum has endeavored to instill a deep curiosity and a lifelong love of learning in its young visitors.

The Museum’s original objective was to engage visitors in discovery of world cultures and natural history through interaction with objects from the collections. These young visitors play with toy soldiers in front of the Pine Bank home of the Museum.

Since its founding, Boston Children’s Museum has provided visitors with access to objects as a way to learn about the world around them. A girl observes and examines a bug with a magnifying glass instead of looking at it through a

For more than 10 years, Boston Children’s Museum has partnered with Boston Ballet to celebrate Ballet Day with master classes, costume petting workshops, and performances by Boston Ballet dancers and musicians.

Boston Children's Museum has redefined both what a museum is and how children of all ages and their parents and caregivers may experience that space together. When Boston Children’s Museum was founded in 1913, most museums were mainly devoted to caring for their collections.

Beginning in 1909, the Science Teachers’ Bureau, a group of Boston educators, gathered a collection of natural history objects for classroom use. Combining a Progressive Era desire for experiential learning, inquiry, and social justice with the popularity of the nature study movement, they created a collection that could serve Boston-area science teachers. In 1913, the Museum opened its doors at Pine Bank in Jamaica Plain. Its purpose was . . .

Over the next several decades, the museum employed innovative techniques that museums across the country would later adopt. The work of Boston Children’s Museum put education and client-centered learning at the core of the visitor’s experience. Hands-on exhibitions that used familiar materials to explore science topics, such as bubbles and motion, illustrated the new approach. Some exhibits addressed topics often considered too sensitive for children, such as Endings: An Exhibit about Death and Loss (1984). With an increased focus on the changing audience, educators and exhibit designers developed PlaySpace for children under the age of 3, a population previously ignored by museums.

Boston Children’s Museum created the first public access to collections in the United States through Study Storage, which enabled visitors to handle some objects. As museum scholar Stephen Weil explained, the new visitor focus influenced the American Association of Museums to change its accreditation standards to include explicit educational goals and not simply collections care. Boston Children’s Museum has earned AAM accreditation since 1972.

Over the past 100 years, Boston Children’s Museum has grown from a museum rooted in a single neighborhood to an urban museum serving the entire city of Boston and beyond. In 1913, with the support of the Boston Parks Department and, eventually, Mayor Curley, the Museum’s founders made Pine Bank, a stately residence next to Jamaica Pond, its first home. The proximity to the pond was ideal for young budding naturalists, who gathered wildflowers and other specimens for the Museum. These frequent visitors developed relationships with staff, created displays, led museum clubs, and became junior docents.

From the outset, children came multiple times each week, often on their own, by foot and by streetcar from neighborhoods throughout Boston. For children unable to make it to Jamaica Plain, the Museum ran the Barnard Annex in Boston’s South End.

In 1975, the Museum began its most dramatic move, to Fort Point Channel. Boston Children’s Museum partnered with the Museum of Transportation to purchase, renovate, and move into a 90-year-old wool warehouse. At the time, the Fort Point Channel area was on the cusp of transition, with artists moving in and creating studios in its factories and warehouses. In 1977, Boston Children’s Museum purchased the Sankey Milk Bottle and moved it to Museum Wharf. It quickly became a Boston icon, signaling the playful possibilities of the new museum and neighborhood.

In its new home, Boston Children’s Museum not only doubled in size but also became more accessible by public transportation, allowing it to better serve Boston’s diverse population. The Museum transformed from a neighborhood museum to a major cultural organization for the entire city. The new building could hold spectacular exhibitions, like a two-story Japanese silk merchant’s house and a Victorian house. In the first year, attendance approached half a million.

Boston Children’s Museum continued to grow at Burroughs Street. By the 1960s, the Museum developed a more child-centered model for visitor engagement, prompting the remodeling of the Visitor Center to accommodate hands-on exhibits.

In 1977, Boston Children’s Museum bought and restored the Sankey Milk Bottle, a former ice cream stand in Taunton, MA. Escorted by fireboats, the giant Hood milk bottle was moved by barge and installed at Museum Wharf.

Completed in April 2007, the Museum became Boston’s first green museum, earning LEED Gold certification for new construction. Shown here is one of the three green roofs that help insulate the new building.

Starting with Delia Griffin, curators encouraged the close study of cultural objects to help children develop critical thinking skills. In 1927, the Japanese Committee for World Friendship among Children sent Ms. Kyoto, a Japanese friendship doll, to Boston, and a year later, it was given to Boston Children’s Museum to promote cultural understanding. Complete with her own trunk of accessories, Miss Kyoto remains an enduring material symbol of Boston’s long connection to Japan.
