Creative Discovery Museum
A hands-on children's museum downtown, with a rooftop climbing tower, a river water-play area and science labs.
This hands-on museum is designed for children aged 1 to 12. The rooftop play area has a tall tower overlooking the city. Exhibits include a simulated river for water play, dinosaur digging, and music and art studios. Admission is about $20, and the museum gets crowded on weekends and holidays. It is about a five-minute walk from the Tennessee Aquarium, so families with children can plan a combined visit on the same day.
