With three stories packed full with interactive exhibits and creative play areas, the Lincoln Children’s Museum is a great place to spend a rainy or snowy afternoon, and a great destination to let the kids stretch their legs and burn off some of their energy. The Lincoln Children’s Museum prides itself on believing that age is a state of mind, and wants its museum to be fun for kids of all ages, whether they’re five years old or fifty. The littlest visitors can play and explore in the Grow Zone, while older kids can have fun in Tiny Town, which is complete with a bank, a doctor’s office, and even a mini apple orchard. Upstairs there’s a transportation exhibit that features trains and cars, a system of kid-sized prairie dog tunnels, and a performing arts stage.
