  Children's Museum of Pittsburgh provides innovative museum experiences that inspire joy, creativity and curiosity.

     Our permanent exhibits are based on the philosophy of Play with Real Stuff, where real things and real processes challenge children's abilities and help them understand the world we live in, and themselves, better. Children can take off on fantastic flights of imagination and return to earth to build a boat, play in the mud, hammer a nail and change the tire on a car. To accommodate our youngest visitors, each exhibit includes an area with activities designed to meet the developmental needs of infants and toddlers. We provide the highest quality exhibits and programs for learning and play. We are a partner and a resource for people who work with or on behalf of children. (less) ... Read more

  Delaware Mudtub and the Mighty Wampum by Greg Romero March 13-30, 2014

     Plays & Players proudly launches a new yearly series that entertains and inspires, P.L.A.Y. (Philadelphia Local Artists for Youth)!

  The Discovery Center is tailored to kids. The walls in one room are the color of sunshine, and in the room next door, tangerine. Then there's a cherry red room, a bright purple room and a green room, too. The hallway connecting several rooms doubles as a chalkboard, perfect for doodling whenever inspiration strikes.
