Kohl Children's Museum of Greater Chicago453

The Kohl Children's Museum has fun and interactive exhibits which reflect the varied learning styles of children ages birth through eight. It provides an atmosphere in which children are able to explore and respond to a Museum made specifically for them!

Permanent Exhibits highlights include:

Water Works, where children can make a splash while exploring scientific properties of water, practical everyday functions of water, and discover some imaginative and artistic uses for water.

Hands on House, where kids can roll up their sleeves and help construct a beautiful new house, and then add some decorations! Kids can also use a conveyor belt, crane, and wheelbarrows to move soft sculptured rocks.

Music Makers is the area where little ones can make a little noise while discovering how sounds make music, and how music makes you feel.

Car Care takes visitors on a trip through the wonderful world of automobiles. kids can build their own toy cars and test them on four different tracks - and drive through the Kid Car Wash (complete with flaps, rollers, and "blow-dry" air nozzles).

Birthday Parties include 1-1/2 hours in a private party room and admission for a full day of Museum exploration for birthday kids and their guests. Goody bags, invitations, mylar balloons, and more are available through the museum's Village Toy Shop, and a wide variety of cake, food, and refreshment options can be handled through Kim & Scott's Pretzel Bakery & Twisting Cafe, right in the museum.
