About Children's Museum of Cleveland

The Children's Museum of Cleveland is an interactive space built to support early learning and development for young children. Its exhibits cover areas such as a water-based science lab, a large town-style play area, an art studio, a miniature-making space, a parent-child zone, a musical play room, and a theater. Adults are expected to stay with their children, and the design invites grown-ups to join in the play. The museum is on Euclid Avenue and offers onsite parking.
