What to expect

Expect learning and fun…rolled into one!
The exhibits and programs at the Children's Museum of La Crosse help expand the world of children, aged 1-12, by engaging them and their adult companions in fun, playful exploration.

Plan to spend at least 1 1/2 hours of exploration and play in the Children's Museum of La Crosse, but your admission is good for the entire day. There are no refreshments on-site and we do not allow outside food or beverage, but if you would like to leave for lunch or a snack and come back in the same day, just ask to have your hands stamped at our admissions desk for your return entry.

Don't forget your camera to capture your special memories! If you are without a camera, affordable disposable cameras, as well as Museum t-shirts and unique playthings, are available from the "Ta-Da!" gift shop.
