Come play with the Children’s Museum of Illinois!
Recognized as one of the country’s “Top 25 Children’s Museums” by Child Magazine, we are a treasured family destination full of innovative exhibits and activities designed to spark imaginations and spur exploration!
Nearly 30,000 sq ft of engaging experiences await you, including our latest addition: the law enforcement-themed Heroes Hall, made possible by a $3 million grant from the Howard G. Buffett Foundation. Featured on The Today Show, this exhibition lets visitors immerse themselves in the work of law enforcement, including participating in actual investigations using forensic tools, a crime lab, a K-9 unit, patrol car, and an actual full-sized helicopter!
Aimed at kids 3-12 but open to children of all ages (and their adults), Children’s Museum of Illinois is your interactive, hands-on home for educational fun!
We’re also a great place to host a birthday, family reunion, meeting, corporate event… you can rent a room or the entire place! Details available at CMofIL.org
