Omaha Childrens Museum

Filed Under: Children Museum    by: unitec

The Omaha Childrens Museum blends technology, education and play to form the perfect environment for children of all ages. By catering to the children, interest in science, history and art can be developed in the early years. This provides a good foundation for school, as students who are interested in the subject do a lot better at them than those who are not.

When you plan to visit the Omaha Childrens Museum, it is important that you realize that this is an all day activity, especially if it is your first time at the museum. Children will go from event to event, exhibit to exhibit, and participate in hands on experiments, workshops and classes. As the purpose is to blend education and fun, the atmosphere is relaxed. For parents who are typically impatient, it is important to allow the children to take their time and enjoy themselves as they go through the Omaha Childrens Museum. Unlike museums of fine art, it is not really possible to blitz through the galleries. Each ‘gallery’ in this museum is typically interactive, actively engaging every child who comes for the day.

Even if you do not have children it is possible to support the Omaha Childrens Museum. You can give donations, sponsor children so they may go to the museum, gift memberships to families, or volunteer your time to help children in the Omaha area. As the Omaha Childrens Museum relies on public support, any donation is appreciated, even if it is only a few dollars.

If you would like to donate items rather than money, there is a lot that you can do to support the Omaha Childrens Museum. The museum is always in need of supplies like buttons, glitter, felt, and construction tools to help keep the museum in top shape. There is more information on the specific requirements of the museum on their main website.

Unlike many museums, the Omaha Childrens Museum is more lenient on the goods that can enter the museum. As the museum is dedicated to children, bags for children’s items are permitted into the museum, as well as changing bags for toddlers and babies.


The Omaha Childrens Museum hosts a variety of traveling exhibitions. If you are interested in seeing a traveling exhibition, please check the schedule for dates. Many of the exhibitions have very short running times, so you will need to plan your visit accordingly.
