Start
The museum is split up into three sections; Natural History, Cincinnati History & the Children's Museum. We started in Natural History and the kids LOVED seeing the dinosaurs!

science
A really large portion of the Natural History Museum focuses on science experiments. Our whole family really enjoyed testing out different apparatuses!
The Ice Age Gallery is an incredible walk through of an ice cave and immersive trail. My family are also huge fans of the nearby "The Cave" section of the museum. (Different area - currently closed)

The large statue of an Ankylosaurus is a staple when entering the Children's Museum section.

A fun space where children can explore a giant mouth and learn more about oral care.

Children take charge in this kid-sized neighborhood. Kid's explore the Kroger grocery store, veterinary clinic, diner, Post Office and more.
Kids' Town
Kid's can explore the natural world and see what creatures exist in their own backyards!

The Children's Museum also includes an area called "The Woods" (a treehouse type play area), "Little Sprouts Farm" (toddler play area) and "The Energy Zone" (shoot balls in a netted space).
