Highlights

  1. 01.

    Celebrate the Season: Discover Adventure Forest, the iconic 500-foot-long climbing course and immersive art installation, open in summer. Kids can rope swing over obstacles, conquer glass and log bridges, shoot down a 70-foot-long slide, and discover panoramic views of Denver from 90 feet in the air at the tippy top lookout! Then cool off at Joy Park, where you can race boats down the river, dip your toes in a stream as you relax in Adirondack chairs, blast The Geyser into the air and try to outrun the falling water (or not!), and get wet in the spray of The Twisted Mister.

  2. 02.

    Create: Make a masterpiece in The Art Studio or learn about nutrition and interesting ingredients alongside a seasoned chef in The Teaching Kitchen.

  3. 03.

    Explore: Dig on the sand, traverse the canyon, and zip through the air in Joy Park, scramble to the top of the Altitude climber, or wander through the whimsical indoor forest, Bloom, designed just for early learners.

Advice for Visitors

Tips

The Children’s Museum is designed for children newborn through 8 years old and their grown-ups, but kids of all ages can have fun at the Museum.

A typical visit lasts one to three hours. Give yourself plenty of time to explore.

For a better visit, consider leaving your stroller in your car.

Get some fresh air at the outdoor park, open year-round. In summer, come dressed to scramble, crawl, swing and slide in closed-toe shoes at the seasonal Adventure Forest and bring your bathing suit to play in the Joy Park water features.

Children and adults must stay together. No adults are allowed in the Museum without a child, and no children without an adult.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Check that your destinations are open! Bought the 3 event pass. You have to use them in 7 days but on the site they don’t tell you the Denver Zoo was closed for 3 of those days and the main Lego discovery at the museum was closed for cleaning as well for some week ( found that out when we got there). Won’t be taking the grandkids anywhere that week again evidwntly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great options I bought a CityPASS when the Guardians were in Denver playing the Rockies. There were lots of great options for things to do, but I was sorry the zoo was closed! The art museum and botanic gardens were my favorites, but I also loved learning about Colorado history at the Colorado history center. There were cool planes at Wings Over Rockies and I liked the Tigers at the aquarium. And as a bonus, I got to go to a wedding at the museum of nature and science, so I really did six things on it!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from 7 Day Expiration A great idea but I bought the CityPASS tickets in a rush and didn’t see they expired after 7 days. Really disappointed to have spent so much and only used one ticket. A warning in the purchase process would have been nice.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy and Economical CityPASS was so easy to use and saved us at least 40 percent. It also helped us learn about options for our Denver trip.
