Best for toddlers
Our 2.5 year old daughter enjoyed this much more than our 6.5 year old son. There was much to do for the little ones--a great alternative on a very rainy day. Relative to other museums, the price was reasonable. Liked the fact you could leave the museum and return later as long as you kept your wristband. A big plus!!!

A waste of time!
The children's play center is not a "museum". The exhibits are weak, nor is the facility even clean. It was expensive for all family members.

Not worth your time or money
Chicago is full of world class museums. The Children's Museum is not one of them. Don't waste your time or money....go to the Shedd Aquarium, the Field Museum, the Art Institute, the Planeterium, etc. or any number of amazing attractions the city has to offer.

Children's museum
My child is nine and I found that most of the exhibits were geared toward children a lot younger. He really enjoyed the giant chess set, but we were in and out in about half an hour. Great for kids 6 or 7 and younger.

Fantastic
A place that your child can grow with. Such a fantastic hands on experience for the little ones. An awesome bargain price. We go about three times a year. With each visit my child discovers more.

FOR CHILDREN!!!
There is no doubt, this a great museum for children. I took my grandchildren. They loved it. But, I thought it wasn't much different than the one at the Union Terminal in Cincinnati.
