Cheshire Children's Museum Hands-on children's museum for children and families where children play to learn. Admission is free for members and children under 12 months.
(300)

Children will love the hands-on exhibits at CCM that focus on the world around them. Exhibits, sponsored by local businesses, include a supermarket, food truck, health/wellness/nutrition, post office, recycling center, construction zone, farm and more! We also have a space for toddlers - “Monadnock Munchkins” (for under age 3). The exhibits include a Transportation Center with a train, boat, car, and a real plane! We also offer memberships, birthday parties, daily programming and a place to meet other families. The cost is $10 for everyone else except those age 60 and over are $5. We hope you'll visit!

As a stay-at-home mom of three, I remember feeling isolated at times and overwhelmed by the sheer amount of parenting advice coming from every direction. Today, I hear many of the same concerns from parents who visit the museum.

That's why we're launching Parents Talk, a six-week peer support series where parents can share experiences, explore strategies, connect with local experts, and most importantly, know they're not alone.

We're hoping this is just the beginning of building the kind of village every parent deserves.

Childcare is provided, and all parents and caregivers are welcome.
