The Children's Museum of Indianapolis is considered the largest children's museum in the world and is home to a number of innovative permanent exhibitions including “The Power of One” showing how one child can make a significant difference for the good of the larger community and the newly installed “National Geographic Treasures of the Earth” involving visitors in scientific sleuthing to bring “lost” objects to light. Rotating exhibits provide something fresh and new for all ages. Other claims to fame are the Chihully glass installation and Dinosphere featuring life-sized replicas of dinosaurs, petrified dinosaur eggs and interactive stations where kids and grown-ups can learn about dinosaur habitats and lifestyles. As you drive by the museum, it looks like there are real dinosaurs busting through the exterior of the structure! The Lilly Theatre also offers live entertainment for children, featuring some of Indy’s most talented theater artists.
