Seoul Children’s Museum (서울상상나라)

Imagination playground, Wood cabin, Designer’s room, Journey to the space… and much more. Let’s have fun in the newly opened interactive Museum perfectly designed for kids!

The brand new Seoul Children’s Museum recently opened in Grand Children’s Park is a prefect place to spend a half-day with your little ones.

You will be surprised how time flies while you’ll be exploring all different playgrounds and activity areas. Just to mention a few of them: you can start by exploring nature and forest then pretend being an artist, dancer or veterinarian, you may send a letter to your alien friend, join the street fashion show in scottish kilt costume or spend hours pumping water in the best water playground in town.

Have fun as much as we did!

Seoul’s Children Museum is a huge kids-friendly educational place on 4 full floors. It is somehow a successor to the now-closed Samsung Children Museum. And possibly even far better than its ancestor!

And when you are done with the museum, don’t forget to take a stroll in the Children’s Grand Park

Opening hours:
10 am – 6 pm (last admission 4 pm)
*Closed on Monday, New Year, Lunar New Year, Chuseok

Admission:
4,000 KRW (kids under 36 months free)

How to get there:
Children’s Grand Park Station (Seoul Subway Line 7), Exit 1.

Directions: Seoul Map for Kids & Families

  1. Thanks for yet another great tip. I took my 3 y.o. son today and we had a great time. I think this is the best children’s museum I’ve seen in Seoul and we’ve been to a few. It was good value too, much cheaper than say, an indoor play centre/cafe.

  2. Wasn’t sure where to post this comment….
    We are leaving Seoul next week after staying here one year. Your blog has been my number one resource for keeping 3 kids and a Mum happy in Seoul. Whenever we are in need of an activity, we look up your blog and take your directions. Thank you so much. Your energy to cover so many places is amazing and your effort to help the rest of us achieve just a little bit of that is greatly appreciated.

    1. Thank you so much Johanne for all those kind words… I’m sorry to hear that you are leaving Seoul and I hope that you’ll come back soon to continue to discover all the wonderful places in Korea. Good luck in your new destination,thanks again and please stay in touch!

  3. Hi. I am teacher at an international school and I want to say thank you for posting all this! My question is do you think this would be appropriate for 8-12 year olds? Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated!

    1. Hello Elsa
      Sorry for my late answer… I would say that the Children’s Museum is most appropriate for younger kids 4 – 8/9 years. For older kids, I would recommend Gwacheon National Science Museum (https://kidsfuninseoul.wordpress.com/learning-fun/museums/gwacheon-national-science-museum/) or Soedaemun Museum of Natural History (https://kidsfuninseoul.wordpress.com/learning-fun/museums/seodaemun-museum-of-natural-history/)
      I hope they’ll enjoy!
