About the London Children’s Museum
The London Children’s Museum curates powerful play experiences through immersive environments, authentic materials, and meaningful relationships. As a champion for children, we advocate for their unique perspectives, contributions, and ways of learning. After 40 years in the same location, the London Children’s Museum recently opened the doors to its new home at 100 Kellogg Lane. This $23 million project is more than a museum— it’s a home that honors the voices of children, celebrates the power of play, and fosters a lifelong love of learning.
If you are passionate about play-based learning and community impact, we would love to hear from you!
