有关博物馆中的娱乐设施理念，其发展历程经历了三个阶段：前现代性，现代性，后现代性。1986年傅科将前现代时期的博物馆定义为“正处在其最转瞬即逝、瞬息万变和岌岌可危的形势，处于节日的模式”。傅科针对这种空间给出范例，露天游乐会场，那些位于城市郊区的精妙绝伦的空旷的地方，一年当中一两次通过展览、变化多端的物品、摔跤选手、蛇女、风水师等诸如此类的东西将大家聚集起来。

前现代时期（十八世纪和十九世纪早期）博物馆的主要特征就是对娱乐设施的关注多过对教育输出的关注。莫里认为，“前现代时期的博物馆更关注于挑起好奇或者创造惊喜”。这就要求对稀有的、异常事物多做关注，对事物的特有品质而不是典型性更感兴趣，鼓励展览的原则在于产生耸人听闻的而不是理性的效果。

在现代时期，博物馆则从一片混乱过渡到了次序井然的系统，那主要是因为一切新的博物馆都是在公共图书馆之后而建立的，在这一时期，博物馆被依照不同种类进行了划分。比如地质学，自然历史，科学，艺术等等。

The idea of entertainment in museums has shaped through three stages, pre-modernity, modernity and post modernity. Foucault 1986 describes the museum in the pre-modern period as ‘in its most fleeting, transitory, precarious aspect, to time in the mode of the festival’. Foucault gave paradigm example of such spaces , Foucault cities ‘ the fairgrounds, these marvelous empty sites on the outskirts of cities that teem once or twice a year with stands, displays, heteroclite objects, wrestlers, snake-women, fortune-tellers, and so forth’(Figure 1) .

The main characterize of the museums of pre-modern period (eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries) was the concentrate on entertainment more than Educational output. Murray argued, ‘the pre-modern museums were more concern to provoke wonder or create surprise. This entailed a focus on the rare and exceptional, an interest in object s for  their singular qualities rather than for their typicality, and encourage principles of display aimed at a sensational rather than a rational and pedagogic effect’. [BENNETT, ’The Birth of Museum’, p.2.]

The museums has changed from chaos to the order and system in the modern period, that was happened mainly because all new museums had been established under the Museum or Public Library Acts, in this period the museums have developed in a range of specialist museum types geology, natural history, Science, art, etc. also the objects were arranged in a calculated manner to make intelligible a scientific view of the world.

By the end of nineteenth century the concept of amusement park has emerged, amusement park is a combination between exhibition and fairs with affixed site. Thomas Krens defines the art museum in this period as” a theme park with four attractions: good architecture, a good permanent collection, prime and secondary temporary exhibitions, and amenities such as shops and restaurants”.
