Bulgaria’s “Little Museum” Has an Immense Impact on Learning

Its name may mean “little museum” in Bulgarian, but Muzeiko has had an outsize impact on education and museum programming in the country. For over seven years, Eastern Europe’s largest children’s science center has introduced tens of thousands of children and their fam- ilies to the fascinating world of science. At the beginning of 2023, the America for Bulgaria Foundation gifted Muzeiko to Bulgaria’s children. As a public institution managed by Sofia Municipality, Muzeiko continues to be chil- dren’s favorite portal to scientific discovery even as it explores new ways to support STEM teaching and learning in Bulgaria.
