Niantic Children's Museum

Niantic Children's Museum Where discoveries are made & fun just happens! With 5,000 square feet all on one floor, an outdoor playspace, nearly all is wheelchair accessible.

Niantic Children's Museum is an interactive, hands-on, educational place for children to try on new roles, let their imaginations soar and feel safe while exploring the world around them. We engage, encourage, and challenge children from 9 months to 9 years. Explore the Discovery Room and science-based activities. Visit the imaginative play side where you can pilot a fishing boat, take on the role

of architect with our giant foam blocks, visit the Global Café & Bazaar, and ride in a Fire Engine! Don't miss the newly revamped Toddler Land which welcomes our youngest visitors. Our outdoor area delights youngsters with a real tree house, whale drum, climbing wall, kid-sized zipline, performing stage, and water play!
