Located in the historic Franklin School, a red-brick landmark at 925 13th Street NW, next to Franklin Square in downtown Washington. Planet Word is one of the most unusual museums in Washington, DC. Instead of focusing on art, history, or science, it is dedicated entirely to language, words, and communication. It opened in October 2020 and is often described as the world’s first voice-activated museum.
The museum aims to make language fun and interactive, encouraging visitors to speak, listen, sing, and play with words rather than simply read exhibits.
It's free to visit with donation. There is a puzzle-style word-themed escape room where teams solve language clues together (with $48 fee).
I really enjoyed the interactions of each room offers, especially the Karaoke Songwriting Gallery. Overall, a great place for couples and kids looking for a fun place to play.
