New to the DMV community, the National Children’s Museum sparks curiosity and creativity in little ones, all the way up to middle-school-age kids!

This playful indoor family destination boasts a wide variety of touch-and-play activities, exhibits, and experiences centered around science, technology, engineering, art, and math.

The National Children’s Museum is open every day except Tuesdays (and select holidays), starting at 9:30 am until 4:30 pm. Visitors are encouraged to reserve tickets for your entire party in one order, as time slots may sell out quickly. The Museum currently operates with hourly, timed-entry tickets to manage visitor capacity; learn more here.
