Boston Children’s Museum
Boston Children’s Museum offers an amazing list of fun activities and exhibits for children of all ages and their parents or care-givers. For over 100 years it has been engaging children in joyful discovery experiences that instill an appreciation of the world, develop foundational skills, and spark a lifelong love of learning.
The museum is packed with educational interactive toys and exhibits for children of all ages to enjoy. As you walk through the various exhibits, your children will learn about race and ethnicity (Boston Black exhibit), dig, climb, and build (Construction Zone), and discover the wonderful world of bubbles (Bubbles exhibit). They can also learn about dance and theater at KidStage and have a lot of fun at the three-story New Balance Foundation Climb. The museum also offers a variety of educational workshops, including science and technology, as well as kindergarten readiness programs.
The museum houses a large collection of over 50,000 objects from all over the world. Many are kept in storage, rotated through permanent or special exhibits, and loaned out to schools for educational programs. Each exhibit is intended to be an educational, innovative, and engaging interactive experience.
You can eat outside near the Milk Bottle or on the first floor of the museum. Food and beverages are not permitted in the exhibit areas. There are also several restaurants within walking distance of the museum in the Fort Point Channel area.
