The new Curious George exhibit, called "Let's Get Curious," opens Saturday, Nov. 24 at the Betty Brinn Children's Museum. The exhibit teaches kids of all ages about math and science, and focuses on the important role played by parents and / or caregivers.

The grand opening is Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon. During this time, kids can make a monkey mask and accompanying adults can enter to win a Curious George prize package. The exhibit will remain at the museum until June 1.

Hopefully, things will run more smoothly when George visits the Betty Brinn Children's Museum than they did when he went to the museum in the classic book by H.A. and Margret Rey called "Curious George Goes to the Museum." Naughty little monkey.
