Help Shape the Future of Play at The Iowa Children’s Museum!

We believe in the power of play to spark curiosity, creativity, and lifelong learning. As we look ahead, we want to ensure our exhibits and programs continue to meet the needs of the families and communities we serve. That’s where YOU come in!

We’re launching a survey to gather feedback from our community. The survey is open to all individuals with a connection to the museum or who have an interest in supporting play-based learning, including parents, caregivers, educators, childcare providers, and museum supporters. Responses are confidential, but participants have the option to submit their name if they wish to stay connected with the museum’s future plans.

✅ Impact thousands of children’s lives in just a few minutes.
