Coastal Heritage Society announces new STEAM Center at Savannah Children’s Museum

Wednesday, May 14th, 2025

Coming soon: the STEAM Center at Savannah Children’s Museum!

Coastal Heritage Society is proud to announce the first indoor expansion of Savannah Children’s Museum!

Learn more about the STEAM Center and sign up for exclusive updates here,

The Savannah Children’s Museum will have its first indoor space by the end of 2025.

The STEAM Center at Savannah Children’s Museum will be housed in the historic storehouse building at the neighboring Georgia State Railroad Museum, a museum also operated by Coastal Heritage Society.

The 100-year-old industrial building is being transformed into a modern learning environment, which will house an exhibit called “Numbers in Nature,” an innovative STEAM exhibition scheduled to open in late 2025. This interactive experience makes complex concepts accessible by revealing the mathematical patterns found all around us—in nature, music, art, and architecture.

Featured in the exhibition is an 1,800-square-foot Mirror Maze of repeating triangles, reflections, and illusions. Visitors will navigate the maze and uncover the secrets hidden inside- including the way out.

Learn more here.

Savannah Educational Consultants: Give Your Child a Reading Boost This Summer

Monday, May 12th, 2025

If you’re like me, you know how tough it can be to watch your child struggle with reading — especially when you know how smart and capable they really are.

At Savannah Educational Consultants, we get it. That’s why we’re offering a special summer program designed just for students with dyslexia and reading challenges.

It’s called “Read to Succeed”, and it’s all about giving kids the tools — and the confidence — they need to become successful readers.

Here’s what you can expect:
Small, focused groups and one-on-one support
Certified instructors trained in programs like Orton-Gillingham and Wilson Reading
Fun, multisensory lessons that actually make reading click

$1,500 total

We’ll also check in with you weekly, offer simple things you can do at home, and celebrate every win — big or small.

Here’s the truth:
Real, lasting change in reading takes more than a quick fix. It takes the right kind of teaching, the right kind of practice, and a whole lot of encouragement.

This summer could be the turning point your child needs. 

Spots are limited, and we want every child to get the attention they deserve — so if you’re thinking about it, now’s the time!
