Public ProgramsPrograms at DuPage Children's Museum offer unique learning experiences!
Whatever the activity, children will build knowledge that will stay with
them long after their visit. Creativity Programs© for Children
include our popular "Wet 'n' Messy" series, guest artist programs
and other workshops that offer small sized classes and a more intensive
experience. These programs are for specific ages, are often longer in duration and run for several
weeks, building on the ideas learned in each program. Programs for Adults: These programs provide the latest findings in child development and can help you enjoy being your child's first teacher. Museum Play is scheduled throughout the Museum every day! Drop in activities are provided in the Art Studio, scattered among the Exhibits and in the Family Resource Center. These activities are free for DCM Members or free with Museum admission. Daily schedules for these activities are posted on the "Today's Events" signs in the Museum lobby.
