The best children’s events in Philadelphia this week

🖍️ Crayola IDEAworks: The Creativity Exhibition (ages 6-12 / personal / museums). Would you like to know how colored pencils are made? Take a trip to Easton. Would you like to measure your creative thinking skills? Visit the Franklin Institute’s new world premiere exhibition of 150 colorful, space, sea, and otherwise inspired installations designed to test guests’ problem-solving skills. If the concept sounds a little too abstract to your kids, just tell them they’ll get RFID wristbands that will show them how smart they are. The museum is open on Monday, February 15th, on President’s Day. ($ 23 for adults, $ 19 for children 3-11 years old, free under 3 years old, February 13 through July 18, Wednesday through Sunday, 222 N. 20th St., card, fi.edu)
