Grand Rapids Children’s Museum Sets Reopening Timeline
| Grand Rapids Children’s Museum 11 Sheldon Ave NE Grand Rapids, MI 49503 |
The day we have all been waiting for is here!
The Grand Rapids Children’s Museum is reopening!
The GRCM has put this downtime to good use – taking time to revamp exhibits, protocols, website, communications, and playful practices.
New things to look forward to include:
- all new bubble tower – come play with the all-new accessible tower and bubble tables
- all-new Spin Zone
- all new Purple Cow ice cream shop in the brand new Little GR Meijer exhibit. Go ahead and check out with the REAL scanners!
- updated Playroom Gift Shop with a new vendor products, and pay with Apple Pay!
They do want all visitors to know that being a “hands on” museum will still remain very difficult right now, and ask for your patience.
To that end, all guests, including members, must make a reservation to visit.
Reservations are first come, first served – registrations will go live to the public on June 15. Members will be rewarded with two “member appreciation days” on June 22 and June 24.
Registration for members-only days opens on June 14 at 8am.

How things will work:

- They will be doing temperature checks at the door.
- They will require masks for everyone age 2 and up.
- Please, no food or drink inside the museum.
