Summer Challenge #10: Explore a Children’s Museum

To beat the heat of the dog days of summer, the challenge this week is to explore a Children’s Museum.

Children’s Museums provide rich environments that stimulate a child’s natural curiosity and creativity. Museums are generally multi-sensory, hands-on, active, and child-centered environments which offers children unique opportunities to play and learn.

Central Ohio is surrounded by a number of Children’s Museums. A few of our favorites include:

AHA! Children’s Museum located in Lancaster, Ohio. You can read all about our experience here.

Little Buckeye Children’s Museum located in Mansfield, Ohio. Our first hand experience is here. Also, be sure to ride the carousel down the street from the museum when you are there.

Duke Energy Children’s Museum in Cincinnati, Ohio. It’s worth the drive! Our experience is posted here.
