WHY join THE PSM Family?

Bold Vision & Culture

We will make an impact by inspiring and empowering our team members and franchise owners as well as the children and families we serve.

We set ambitious goals and will always strive to consider the long-term implications of our decisions. 

We like to have fun, but we are serious about realizing our full potential and helping you achieve yours.

Strong & Growing Brand

The Play Street Museum brand is a widely recognized and highly regarded brand in the market that instantly brings to mind a long list of desirable adverbs including the following: educationally and developmentally relevant, engaging, clean, high quality, consistent, enjoyable to visit, and aesthetically pleasing.

Play Street Museum is the market leader and innovative creator of a distinctive and unique small-format children's museum concept that successfully delivers a dynamic and interactive experience purposefully designed to encourage a young child’s sense of independence, exploration, and creativity.  

Proven Experience

Our leadership team has successfully opened 25 locations in diverse markets across the globe (with 15 additional locations currently in development). In addition, we directly operate 2 of these locations as ‘corporate’ locations which serve as learning laboratories and training sites.

Because we are still closely involved with the management of multiple Play Street Museum locations in a single market, we are able to continually test, learn, modify, and improve our systems, processes, and tactics.

Comprehensive Training

Our comprehensive training program covers the many aspects required to successfully start, operate, and grow your franchise.

We provide quarterly trainings for new franchise owners which consists of two components: a weekly online training for seven weeks and five days of onsite experience that covers a series of topics and in-store scenarios.

Topics include Museum Operations (staffing, software systems, guest relations, facility maintenance, operational procedures); Day-to-Day Activities (birthday parties, Playtime by Reservation, craft experiences, retail, cleaning and more); Growth & Development (sales, marketing, advertising, community outreach).

Robust Support Network

We are with you at every step of your journey... from site selection to comprehensive classroom and hands-on training, to working alongside you when you greet your first guest on opening day.

We are passionate about your success and that means helping you in selecting your location as well as in designing and outfitting your location so that you can have your location up and running as quickly as possible.
