Now who could be hidden behind this shield? 🤔
Oh, it’s a knight taking refuge in the secret tunnel in Castle 🏰. Find this hiding place, climb the tower, mix spells in the wizard’s room, and more when you visit Castle, presented by Shriners Children's Chicago. https://www.ccm.org/castle

We are honored to be partnered with Shriners Children's Chicago on our newest exhibit, Castle. This partnership allows our organizations to "come together to further promote how we can support kids of all abilities to be able to extend themselves and reach that next level."

Thank you, Fox 32 Chicago for sharing more about this partnership and our new exhibit where kids can explore what it's like to be in a castle by climbing through multiple stories, hosting a courtly teatime, searching for a dragon, and more. https://loom.ly/Pqs0LhM

Castle is presented by Shriners Children's.

We’re getting a look inside the Chicago Children’s Museum’s new “Castle” exhibit, where kids can step into a fairytale world filled with interactive adventures.
