Description
Indy opened its Children's Museum in 1925, decades before the rest of America got on the kids'-museum bandwagon. Today the five-level, 433,000-square-foot facility is considered one of the world’s largest. Children love "Passport to the World", an internationally-themed gallery where you can climb onto a "howdah"--an ornate passenger basket placed atop Indian elephants--or sing along with a Mexican mariachi band. And the rock-climbing wall is a perennial favorite. Your entire family will be fascinated by Fireworks of Glass, the world’s largest Dale Chihuly glass sculpture that spirals 43 feet skyward in the atrium.
