We had an amazing time here, and my daughter absolutely loved it! Her favorite part was the water works area, but we explored both floors, and she found something exciting in every section. The exhibits were fun, interactive, and educational, making it a great experience for both kids and adults. I loved how the space encouraged learning and discovery in such an engaging way. The staff was friendly, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming and well-organized. It’s a fantastic place for families, and we’ll definitely be back for more fun and learning!

One of the best ways to keep your child(ren) entertained for HOURS. The staff is super friendly, professional, and sweet. I went there today to photograph a mom and daughter enjoying some play time. As long as you are extremely mindful and respectful of others, most people don't mind as long as you focus specifically on your subject. Especially in these cold days, it's nice to have a safe, fun place for kids to go! Thank you! 💓

What a wonderful experience! The Children’s Museum in Naperville is absolutely amazing and a fantastic place to spend time as a family. While it’s not a huge museum, its size is perfect: practical, cozy, and filled with well-thought-out activities for kids. Every corner is carefully designed, making it a truly special place. Cleanliness and organization: Everything is spotless and perfectly maintained. It’s clear the staff puts a lot of effort into keeping the space in excellent condition, which is so important for a children’s environment. The staff: Super friendly and always helpful. We visited on a Saturday, relatively late in the day, yet the team remained kind, attentive, and made sure everyone had a great time. Café area: I absolutely loved the café! It’s practical, with options to heat your own food (they even have a microwave!), but what really stood out was how they promote healthy eating in such a creative way. They have photos of children enjoying fruits and vegetables, which is so refreshing to see, especially here in the U.S. You’ll see pictures of kids happily eating oranges, bananas, broccoli, apples, bell peppers, carrots, strawberries, cucumbers, watermelon, celery… it’s truly inspiring! The vibrant colors and positive messaging create such an uplifting environment. Activities: The interactive exhibits, especially those involving air, are simply delightful. My child had an amazing time exploring and learning, so much so that we lost track of time. It’s a place where kids can play and learn at the same time, fueling their curiosity and imagination. Affordable prices: The museum offers a high-quality experience at a very reasonable cost. It’s definitely a place we’ll return to. In summary, the Children’s Museum in Naperville is a magical space where kids have tons of fun, and parents enjoy seeing them so happy. It’s clean, well-organized, with an amazing staff and activities that spark creativity. I can’t recommend it enough. It’s absolutely worth a visit!

Always fun and they do members only days as well which is nice, less crowded. They also change the upstairs at times which is fun to see different themes!! My son enjoys full morning at the museum, even made his own forky( wood from the wood shop) and decorated him at the arts and crafts section after!
