Known forCity Parkfamily-friendlyinteractivemodern facility
Relocated to a stunning new facility in City Park in 2019, this is one of the best children's museums in the South, with thoughtfully designed interactive exhibits tied to Louisiana's environment, food culture, and community life. The outdoor spaces integrating the park's natural landscape are especially impressive. It's genuinely fun for adults accompanying kids. Caveat: it gets very busy on weekends and during school holidays, and parking in City Park can be a challenge.
