Pricing Snapshot
The Upper Peninsula Children's Museum is a downtown Marquette children's museum where play is woven directly into the exhibits, from a giant human-body slide and a kid-sized streetscape to a mining-themed climb-in area, cockpit play, animal encounters, and creative hands-on stations. It fits families who want more exploratory play than a standard indoor playground, especially when siblings span multiple ages and interests. General admission is available six days a week, with toddler programming, family events, and birthday party options layered on top of the exhibit floor.
