At The Edwardsville Children’s Museum, we believe that kids of all ages learn through discovery and hands-on play. Our interactive exhibits and action-packed programs are designed to build happy and curious learners from ages 6 months to 60 years! We not only inspire creativity, we spark joy for children and their grown-up.
As the largest children’s museum in the St. Louis Metro East, ECM is an education destination where kids and imaginations are welcome to wander.
Explore our hometown and travel the world with our collection of kid-driven exhibits.
From birthday parties to field trips, we create unforgettable memories and a life-long love of learning.
Join today and play all year! Discover all the benefits of an ECM family membership.
