Miami Children’s Museum offers Florida resident discount

The museum is operating with a contactless e-ticketing system that requires patrons to select a specific play session and make their purchase in advance.

AVAILABLE SESSIONS:

  • 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
  • 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.

COST:

$24 for general public; free for museum members and children younger than 1. The museum offers a discount for Florida residents – at the price of $16 if you present a valid State of Florida ID.

During quarantine, Miami Children’s offered “Museum at Home” programs online, with activities via videos, step-by-step guides and more. That material remains on the site, if you prefer staying home with the kids.
