She’s on the move, but not on her feet yet. Lucky for you, there are plenty of museums that cater to the crawling set. Even better, a visit won’t break your budget, since kids under one are almost always free-of-charge. Here, you’ll find 14 of our favorite museums for busy crawlers, both large and small, from across the country.

Boston Children’s Museum – Boston, Ma

Crawlers love to explore the PlaySpace, which includes soft padded spots for safe pint-sized adventures and a waterbed perfect for lounging. This part of the Boston Children's Museum was built with 0- to 3-year-olds in mind, and sparks creativity and hands-on exploration with the help of different sensory activities like finger painting. Plus, the museum's schedule is jam-packed with baby and toddler-friendly classes like Music and Movement. Bonus: kiddos under one year are free.
