Omaha Children's Museum, Children's museum in downtown Omaha, United States.
The Omaha Children's Museum is a children's museum in downtown Omaha with interactive exhibits spread across multiple floors. Visitors find a science center, art studio, and construction zone designed for learning through hands-on exploration.
The museum was founded in 1976 as a traveling exhibition before establishing a permanent location on South 20th Street. This transition allowed it to grow into a stable institution serving the local community.
The museum invites children to engage in art projects, scientific experiments, and hands-on activities led by local experts and educators. These experiences encourage young visitors to think creatively and develop practical skills through participation.
The museum is located downtown and is easy to reach by public transportation or car. The spaces are accessible for families with children of various ages and well-equipped for extended visits.
A new location is being developed at Heartland of America Park along the RiverFront, expanding where families can access these programs. This growth reflects the commitment to reaching more children across the region.
