The Junior League

Prior to its merger in 2008, the Children's Museum and Theater were founded by the Junior League of Portland in 1976 and 1923 respectively.

Well maintained exhibits throughout. A wonderful mix of programming popping up throughout the day. And deceptively big.

Great place to take your toddler or big kid! However, some parents bring their big kids into the toddler park with no regard for the wee ones

Carmen N

Such a fun place for a kid. Highlights: the fire truck , space shuttle, beehive , and the science lab.

Perhaps the only place in town where you can play a Theramin

Olexy Sadovy

Great place for family and kids.

The toddler play area is great way to tucker out a kid
