The Children’s Museum in London, Ontario, offers a number of engaging and interesting exhibits. Some of their permanent exhibits include “Child Long Ago,” “Dinosaur,” “London Hydro You’ll Make a World of Difference,” “My Arctic Discovery,” “Science In Your World,” “Sifton Street Where You Live,” “TD My Place in Space,” “The Lookout,” and “Things In Caves.” However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the museum has begun offering virtual “Museum At Home” experiences including live virtual programs, pick-up play & activity kits, DIY science and art activities, print-at-home activities, and virtual classroom field trips. As of 2021, the London Children’s Museum is also planning and building its new museum location. Throughout this process, the museum has asked for submissions from their visitors to help design the new building, making it a fun and interactive experience.
