Exhibits included Waterworks, a water play and discovery exhibit; Imagination Playground, large foam building blocks; a Paintable Wall; a Magnetic Ball Wall; and a Baby Ball Pit. Art-making stations encouraged creativity, and a boat-building maker table fostered invention and design. A sliding scale of $1-35 per family made the events accessible to a wide range of families. The Tour proved supportive in post-pandemic recovery, re-engaging families and children in social interactions, while also strengthening parent-child bonding. Hundreds of families attended the events. 34137 Virtual and Kit-based Programs for FamiliesWith families isolated and socially-distanced, many of them with few resources to help their children learn, Habitot developed and distributed over 950 free play and learning kits based on museum-based activities in art, STEM, dramatic arts, and play. Local social service agencies, hospitals, and nonprofits helped distribute the kits to the most vulnerable families, particularly those in the child-welfare system, children with special needs, and previously incarcerated parents. Staff-led Zoom sessions guided parents in fostering childrens learning of math and science concepts, language, and problem solving while creating a space for social interaction. At-home activities were distributed to 5,000 readers via weekly email newsletters. Original puppet shows were posted monthly on YouTube. 8383 Birthday-in-a-Box for Unhoused ChildrenPrior to the pandemic, Habitot annually welcomed dozens of children and families living in family shelters to host their childrens birthday parties at the museum, with Habitot providing a gift for the birthday child, food, drinks, a cake, and party favors for guests. With the museums closure during the pandemic, Habitot developed the Birthday-in-a-Box program, partnering with 10 family shelters in Alameda and Contra Costa counties to deliver all-inclusive kits of reusable and consumable materials so shelter staff could host birthday parties in their shelters. These kits, valued at $800 each, also included $15 gift cards for the birthday children. The kits supported over 34 birthday parties, serving an estimated 434 children living in shelters, a number that is likely underreported. 189904 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 2 0 true 29 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 6 6 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X Gina Moreland 5106471111 1569 Solano Ave PMB 326 Berkeley CA 94707 Gina Moreland Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 9600 0 0 Mona Alawdeen President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Paul Armano PE MBA Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Maya Melczer Greenfield Secretary 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Garen Corbett Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Wendy Muse Sinek Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Hanley Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 9600 0 false false false 0 186276 154829 341105 Fees for Service 712110 2000 2000 2000 57 57 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Miscellaneous 900099 1957 1957 1957 345119 2000 2014 0 0 0 0 9600 1440 3840 4320 0 162573 110567 9616 42390 0 4968 4509 105 354 14862 9750 1232 3880 0 0 3180 3180 0 0 0 19600 19600 3282 2297 790 195 52384 33403 17094 1887 0 0 0 5520 4582 918 20 0 0 0 0 1760 867 190 703 6993 2889 2683 1421 0 284722 189904 39648 55170 212962 346249 150844 150900 75000 0 2000 2000 0 0 0 1574 1574 0 196435 185462 12732 10973 0 0 0 0 4200 4200 459312 515896 12644 8831 12644 8831 X 296668 357065 150000 150000 446668 507065 459312 515896 60397 X false false false X 315929 477355 299806 366708 341105 1800903 0 0 315929 477355 299806 366708 341105 1800903 418322 1382581 844 57 901 0 79 3457 3536 1805340 612340 0.76580 0.80340 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 63985 53012 10973 132450 132450 10973 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b Materials for 990 prep prepared in house with independent controller and oversight by ED.
