Grab your carrier because these galleries have fluffed their welcome mats for new moms and pops. Nobody will bat an eye when your babe starts crying here. Some spaces even have top-notch amenities like baby bottle warmers, complimentary strollers and private nursing rooms! Flip through our album below for the top museums around the country that make going out with a baby a lot more fun.

Minnesota Children’s Museum – St. Paul, Minnesota

Big adventures in the Habitot gallery are tailored to engage motor and language skills of infants 6 months and up. Crawlers can play peek-a-boo in the rolling prairie play space, touch soft flowers, and even sit on dad's lap as they rush down a mini-slide for a slight breeze. MCM doesn’t accept group reservations on Tuesday mornings, which means for extra peaceful mommy and me time.
