What we love about this… it can travel! Since it was designed in 1965, Spirograph has made it possible for aspiring artists of all ages to create beautiful, intricate designs.
Macy's 2nd Mondays Second Monday of each Month (10am – noon)
The Greatest Children’s Outing in History
Introduce your preschool children to the wonders of The Henry Ford — all before nap time. Preschoolers rule during Macy’s 2nd Mondays at The Henry Ford. Storytelling, live entertainment and dozens of hands-on activities related to some of our most memorable artifacts — trains, dollhouses, historic games, even a ride on our amazing Herschell-Spillman carousel. There are seasonal activities, too: Santa in December, Valentine’s Day take-home artwork in February and 19th-century base ball in July (base ball was spelled as two words into the early 1900s). And it’s all free! Give your children’s minds the adventure of their young lives.
