Architect Peter Kuttner. Principal at CambridgeSeven, discusses the Boston Children's Museum, which was the second children's museum in the United States. The museum was originally founded in Jamaica Plain and was moved to its current location in 1979. The Smith Family Waterfront Park at the Boston Children's Museum is designed to engage children in the programming of the museum and in the life of the city. The architects followed Dr. Spock's mantra, "Please Touch", in designing the building and its exhibitions.
