Science, history and fun abound at the Cincinnati Museum Center (CMC). Not only does CMC contain world-class museums, like the Cincinnati History Museum and the Museum of Natural History & Science, but it also is home to the Cincinnati Children’s Museum, which was ranked in the top 10 best children’s museums in the country on
USA Today’s 10best poll. At the Children’s Museum, kids can climb, crawl, explore and discover the world around them through eight educational and themed play areas, including two made especially for younger children. The museum center also hosts national traveling exhibits that delight both children and adults with their interactive learning elements and expansive collections, like the recent exhibits “Science Behind Pixar,” “Dinosaurs of Antarctica” and “Bricktionary: The ultimate LEGO® A-Z,” which made its world debut in Cincinnati this year and will be on display through August. You can also catch a film highlighting the wonders of the world in the immersive Robert D. Lindner Family OMNIMAX® Theater.
