Testing Ideas

1975-1976

Carol returned home from the Boston Children's Museum with a vision. Children in her city would have a museum of their own! By 1975, a group of forward-thinking educators, leaders, and volunteers had been assembled to test museum ideas. That summer, 21 programs were tested in playgrounds and parks throughout the city. 

An interim board of directors incorporated the London Children's Museum and began working out of the London Urban Resource Centre, using a trailer donated by the Western University.

Help Open Our Doors to our new home at 100 Kellogg Lane!

After years of planning, dreaming, and building, we are so close to opening the doors to the new London Children’s Museum at 100 Kellogg Lane. But we urgently need your help.

We’ve had incredible support from our community so far, but $1 million is needed before the end of the year in order to open our doors on time. Let’s complete this journey the way we started it and our open our doors together.
