We are thrilled to announce the newest member of the Children's Museum of Pooler—Sugar, a loving and dedicated therapy dog! Sugar's presence will provide comfort, companionship, and emotional support to children of all ages as they explore the museum and engage in learning experiences.

Why Sugar’s Role Matters
Therapy dogs like Sugar have been proven to reduce stress, enhance social skills, and provide much-needed emotional support. At the Children's Museum, Sugar will be there to help children feel safe and confident while they discover and learn. Whether it’s lending a paw for a calming cuddle or offering a joyful moment to children in need, Sugar will make a lasting impact.
