I would really like to find a way to do this (either online or locally) if anyone has any tips for giving a model some images of real jewelry with dimensions (and if needed even photographed or generated children) and having the model accurately place the jewelry on the kids.

I would love to use a music model that could help me do that.
I’m imagining feeding it my score and then iterating with it to create the final piece I’ve had stuck in my head all this time.

There are a few networks of museums such that once you join one museum in one network you get member benefits (or discounts) to the other museums in that network.
The networks break down into: Arts [0], Science [1], and Children's museums [2] [3]. Bonus network: Zoos! [4]
These can be a great value - especially for families with kids that like to do these things frequently. Our family travels between the MA, NC, and FL and the memberships have been a big help.

Join the local institution you will frequent the most as you sometimes get better discounts/value at your "home" location.
Finally, check your local library - many have free or reduced cost tickets/passes for local museums and other institutions.
