Discover how ordinary people changed the world with Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum: The Exhibit at the Museum of Discovery and Science! Travel through history to meet inspiring inventors, groundbreaking astronauts, sustainability visionaries and more. Explore their stories and lessons through hands-on fun for the whole family!

Presented locally by Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and Florida Prepaid College Savings Plans, his new exhibit brings to life the acclaimed PBS KIDS® TV series, Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum, which follows kid adventurers Xavier Riddle, his little sister Yadina, and best friend Brad as they tackle everyday problems by doing something extraordinary: traveling back in time to learn from real-life inspirational figures when they were kids.

The PBS KIDS® TV series, Xavier Riddle and The Secret Museum is based on the highly acclaimed children’s book series Ordinary People Change the World by #1 New York Times bestselling author and South Florida resident Brad Meltzer and award-winning letterer and illustrator Chris Eliopoulos. Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum: The Exhibit is a national traveling exhibit created by The Magic House, St. Louis Children’s Museum in collaboration with 9 Story Media Group, Inc.
