Located at the Navy Pier on Lake Michigan, the Chicago Children’s Museum was founded in 1982 and has been bringing joy to visitors of all ages ever since! Initially housed in the Chicago Public Library, the museum began with trunk shows traveling exhibits in response to capacity crowds on-site, before moving to the Navy Pier in 1995. The fourth-largest children’s museum in the United States, the Chicago Children's Museum, features thirteen vibrant interactive and hands-on exhibits across three floors where children of all ages are encouraged to create, explore, and discover together through play. Exhibits and activities focus on math, science, literacy, visual and performing arts through engaging and sensory educational content.
