Gift shopping at science museums in the Bay Area Combining science, art, and technology, the games, toys, and books at the Bay Area's three major science museum stores promise hours of educational entertainment. Shop for some as seasonal gifts, then take your family on a side trip to a fascinating museum exhibit.
At these stores, you'll find items thoughtfully selected to reflect museum shows. Shelves and tables display anything from bubble makers and hand puppets to challenging adult puzzles or costly microscopes and jewelry. Prices can be lower than retail (members receive discounts of up to 15 percent), and sales proceeds support the nonprofit institutions.
