Event Details

Chicago Children’s Museum, the premier destination for play-filled early childhood experiences since 1982 located at Chicago’s Navy Pier, is proud to announce they’ve been acknowledged as one of the top 10 best children’s museums in the country for 2024 as awarded by USA TODAY in their 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards. Twenty nominees for this prestigious acknowledgement are carefully hand-selected by a panel of editorial experts from the publication, and subsequently voted on by the public for the most accurate representation of the top ten attractions, destinations and experiences in the US in their respective categories.

“We are overjoyed to be receiving USA TODAY’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Award as one of the top 10 children’s museums in the nation.” said Jennifer Farrington, President and CEO of Chicago Children’s Museum. “Our success is in large part due to our incredible team and generous donors, however we want to give a very special thank you to the millions of children that have walked through our doors and enjoyed our exhibits over the past four decades. We appreciate the opportunity we’re given to continue to serve children and families visiting the museum from all over the world year-round, and could not be more grateful for this incredible recognition.”

Chicago Children’s Museum, at its core, believes in the power of play. With a core mission to improve children’s lives through the creation of a community where learning and play connect, the iconic children’s destination has served as a hub for exactly that for the past four decades. “We are honored to be awarded for our dedication to providing an unparalleled experience for children and parents alike,” added Farrington. The museum is intentionally designed for experimentation, creativity and learning for all children. From accessibility and inclusion to imagination and beyond the engaging exhibits, both rotating and permanent, are a continuous representation of taking educational entertainment to new heights to further early childhood development and enrichment for all.

The Chicago Children’s Museum currently features fan-favorite exhibit Circusville and permanent exhibits like Moen Presents Water City, Cloud Buster, Tinkering Lab, the Art Studio and more.
