"Platinum Seal of Transparency"

by the GuideStar, we aim to be world class in all areas!

To inspire a passion for lifelong learning–this is our mission here at the Children’s Museum of Montana. We are dedicated to kindling and nurturing a love for education in every child that walks through our doors.

For over 25 years, the Children’s Museum of Montana has served Great Falls and our surrounding communities by providing a space for young and old alike to stretch the bounds of their creativity and knowledge. We are the largest and oldest children's museum in Montana!

Through our real life play model, each of our individual exhibits provides the opportunity for creative play and cognitive development. Designed for ages 0-12, the museum continues to expand not only our exhibit offerings, but our STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) camp and after school programming in our education department as well.

Whether through hands-on experimentation as part of our camp series, or through extended curriculum services and social interaction in our Whizzard Academy after school program, the youth of our community are inspired to seek knowledge and to see the world through a lens of curiosity.

And our reach goes beyond just our community- we have seen visitors from around the nation and from overseas!

So join us at the Children’s Museum of Montana, where play and learning go

hand-in-hand!

Through collaboration we have hosted the annual toddler screening, the Head Start registration, scavenger hunts, Easter egg hunts, and many more events!

We provide a “world class” experience by keeping our core values of quality, customer service, and integrity close to heart. Small admission fees have allowed us to make the museum accessible to everyone yet it takes donors and sponsors to keep those admissions low, exhibits upgraded, and the creation of all new programs and exhibits.

Come start your adventure!
