Welcome to the Children’s Museum of Findlay, where curiosity takes the lead and learning feels like play.

At the Children’s Museum of Findlay, kids don’t just observe the world; they explore it, build it, imagine it, and sometimes take it apart to see how it works. Our museum is a hands-on, minds-on space designed especially for children and families, where creativity, discovery, and joyful learning happen every single day.

Our Story

The Children’s Museum of Findlay opened in July 2014 with one guiding belief: children learn best through play.

For many years, the museum was located inside the Findlay Village Mall. In early 2025, the mall’s demolition led to the closure of that space, but not the end of our mission.

We are now preparing to reopen in a brand new location at 11600 County Road 99 in Findlay, creating room to grow, reimagine exhibits, and bring the magic of hands-on learning back to our community.

Our Mission

The Children’s Museum of Findlay inspires learning through play by providing engaging, hands-on experiences that encourage curiosity, creativity, and confidence in children of all ages.

We believe play is essential to how children learn and grow. Through thoughtfully designed exhibits and programs, we support critical thinking, social and emotional development, and a lifelong love of learning.

For Families, Educators, and the Community

The Children’s Museum of Findlay is more than a place to visit. It is a community resource. We proudly support families, caregivers, educators, and community partners by offering enriching experiences that extend learning beyond the classroom.

Whether it is a first museum visit, a school field trip, a rainy-day adventure, or a family tradition, the museum is a place where lasting memories are made.
